Fund Raising Event

Breaston Flower Circle held a special demonstration on 25th June this year when Ian Buxton demonstrated his “As the Mood Takes Me”. The aim of this demonstration was to raise money for Breast Cancer Care. It was a wonderful evening with Ian pulling out all the stops for us. We raised £854.80 on the night including money from the sale of Cookery Books. These books contained tried and tested recipes from members of the Club. In addition, two of our members, Julie and Linda, who live close to each other, opened their gardens to boost the figure by £512.57. We made the figure up to £1,850 from club funds.

Fund Raising Event

We were able to present cheques at our last meeting of £800 to Veronica Rogers, a specialist Nurse, of the Derby City Breast Unit and £800 to Dr Andrew Evans, a Consultant Radiologist, from the Breast Unit at Nottingham City Hospital. The money donated to Nottingham would go towards the building of the new screening unit now being built on the Nottingham City Hospital site. The money to Derby would be put towards new equipment. We also gave £250 to The national charity - Breast Cancer Care based in Sheffield.
