AN AFTERNOON tea in Sindlesham will raise funds for a Berkshire charity.
The Sparkling Afternoon Tea will take place at Sindlesham Court in May with all proceeds supporting the Berkshire MS Therapy Centre.
The Reading-based centre provides a number of specialised therapies and a social space for people with Multiple Sclerosis across Berkshire.
It receives no NHS funding so relies solely on fundraising.
Following a successful event last year, the charity is hoping to raise more than £2,000 this time around..
Kim Williams, community and events fundraiser, said: “Last year’s event had such a lovely atmosphere and it was wonderful to see so many people after covid had kept us apart for so long.
“As well as being such a friendly event, it will help us raise the funds we need to support local people with MS.”
This year, the charity is expecting to provide more than 10,000 treatments this year and will need to raise £400,000 to do so.
Ms Williams added: “With costs rising, we are under real pressure.
“We know that times are tough for everyone at the moment but we hope to bring some fun this year. Everyone is welcome so please bring your friends and family.”
The event takes place in the Flavell suite at Sindlesham Court on Saturday, May 20, from 2pm to 5pm.
The venue is fully accessible and has a large free car park.
Tickets to the event costs £25 and can be purchased online.
