Barn Dance
One of the first fundraising events of President Jean's year was the Barn Dance held on 14th July at Waddeton Barton Farm.
The owners of the farm Richard and Soroptimist President Jean Tully would like to thank everyone, over 240 people, who were there and made it such a special evening, raising over £3,100 for Torbay Hospital’s Ricky Grant and Turner Ward Trust Funds.
