'make
today count' cancer
research uk fundraiser
 As
part of the cancer research fundraiser this year,
Brenda spent time with
paratroopers from Woodbridge,

busting treatments
before their deployment to Afghanistan. All funds raised were
donated to Cancer Research in memory of Margaret Goodey, a dearly
loved and wonderful friend to all who knew her.
african outreach work
Brenda
recently
travelled out to Port Alfred in
South Africa for 3 weeks to help Eunice Mengell and her local church outreach team to assist
children affected by Aids and T.B., at the local Santa Hospital. She
was self funded in this venture and raised funds by donating all
her income from pamper parties to help provide simple gifts of books, pencils
and toys etc. for the children. Many thanks to David
Kennett, Diane Docherty and Colchester Rugby club for their personal
donations and to those of you who hosted pamper parties.
