I WISH to thank everyone who supported and helped at the third Coffee, Cake and Music event held at St Agatha's Church, Easby on Sunday, July 5. The event was in aid of church funds and the Macular Society and an impressive £636 was raised. Particular thanks must go to Susanna Pell for playing so brilliantly throughout the morning and to Sheila Pell for sharing her knowledge and experience of Macular Degeneration – the biggest cause of sight loss in the UK.
