The BIG Bramhall Free Tea Party – Photos & Thank You’s

Wendy Green, founder of ILoveBramhall.com thanks everyone involved in the Big Bramhall Tea Party, it was a brilliant day! See the photos and who helped make the event a success here

This event is not a fund raiser but purely a community celebration of our senior citizens and that exactly what it was!

Over 300 guests were joined by the Mayor of Stockport, Linda Weekes Holt and her Consort, Ken Holt, along with local councillors and MP Mary Robinson.

Thanks to our main sponsors SAS Daniels, Nottcuts and Cheshire Hearing Centres
