Cherry Lodge Cancer Care fundraisers continue to put on an interesting and succesful range of events, getting 2024 off to an excellent start with the Summer Soulstice/Cherry Lodge Heart & Soul Ball on 17th February. This was followed, on Friday 23rd February, by the first Arkley Club Cha Night of the year. Iris’s Easter Flower Arranging Workshop, held on Thursday 21st March 2024 at Barnet Grange Care Home, was very much enjoyed. Thankfully, the weather stayed dry for the Cherry Lodge Easter Sponsored Walk ‘n’ Talk event in Oakhill Park on Sunday 24th April 2024.
Next up for CL fundraisers is the 2024 tcs London Marathon on Sunday 21st April. We have seven runners taking part to raise money for Cherry Lodge – please sponsor them as generously as you can. Summer Soulstice is holding a festival Warm-Up event at the Black Horse pub, Barnet on Saturday 4th May 2024, with soulful beats from 4pm until midnight, wood-fired pizza and cocktails. Enjoy a fantastic comedy line-up at Laugh out Loud on Saturday 11th May 2024. Thinking further ahead, tickets are available via this link for Summer Soulstice 2024, to be held on Saturday 15th June.

To help you look good in the new fashion season you are invited to come along to the Dawn Ledgard Autumn 2017 Clothes Sale. These popular seasonal sales offer a good value opportunity to buy from an extensive range of beautiful designer clothing, jewellery and accessories.
As usual, this sale will be held at the Hadley Wood Association Centre (behind the Tennis Club). As past customers know, buying here is much more convenient than a trip into the West End. It is also much more enjoyable and reliable than buying online. Why not bring a friend and take a break to chat over coffee?
Donations of £1 at the door, plus commission on sales, will be given to Cherry Lodge Cancer Care to help fund our valuable services for people affected by cancer.
