A well attended coffee morning which was one of the first wet days after a lovely warm September. It also coincided virtually to the day with the centenary of the foundation stone being laid on October 4th 100 years previously. We collected £78 for Water Aid. This is the cost of a hand washing station at a school in Africa plus 500 sachets of oral rehydration salts. These replace the vital sugar, salt and minerals that children lose through diarrhoea and can be given at home without resort to a clinic. Many thanks for helping to save the lives of vulnerable people who have no choice but to drink water which is contaminated.
