九游体育

Last Thursday we celebrated the 九游体育抯 70th birthday with a Big7Tea party and open day at the Whittington Hospital site. The event was opened by the Mayors of Islington and Haringey and Comfort Offorjindu. At the opening ceremony Steve Hitchins unveiled a plaque commemorating Comfort抯 recent Lifetime Achievement award at the 九游体育 Windrush70 Awards so we have a constant reminder of her hard work and service to the 九游体育 over the past four decades.

 

We have now counted all of the proceeds from the event and are delighted to confirm that it raised over �1,072 towards the trust抯 charitable funds.

 

The whole Executive Team and the Communications Team want to say a huge thank you to everyone who contributed, helped with the organisation on the day and in advance, hosted a stall, donated a raffle prize, helped with the logistics, attended, bought a raffle ticket or just came along to celebrate the 九游体育抯 many achievements over the past 70 years.
