Christmas Party
Christmas Party at the Parkinson’s Cafe in Hullbridge
Tuesday 18th December 2018 marked the final Parkinson’s Cafe of the year and our Christmas Party.
A fun Christmas Quiz, presided over by host Colin Rickards (above) was won by Brian and Francis with 22 points with Marion and John coming second with 20 points.
This was followed by a sing song of carols by the Hullbridge Free Church which went down very well by all.
Parkinson’s Cafe – Hullbridge would like to wish everyone associated with us a very Happy Christmas and a Healthy New Year for 2019.
Christmas Fair – Hullbridge Parish Council
Hullbridge Parkinson’s Cafe participated in this years Parish Council Christmas Fair raising £140 towards keeping the cafe open in 2019.
Our day was set to get better when I was invited on stage and presented with a letter informing us that Hullbridge Parkinson’s Cafe was the Parish Councils chosen charity for 2019.
A massive thank you to everyone for making this possible.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
Colin Rickards
