Fantastic to see so much support for Carers of Alzheimer's. The Atmosphere on the night was very lively
Lots of beautiful food, some wine, great company and lots of healthy laughing. The combination of all those things brought people together in a brilliant way to celebrate the giving. We had a big raffle with 12 prizes and we had several silent Auctions all happening simultaneously. The air was electric. Then I called 2 mins left for the silent Auction and the bun fight began about who would pay the most for some of the excellent items available. I have to say, at that point, it was silent no longer!
It did my heart proud to hear from Viv, our carer, who spoke and shared her story. Through sharing her story she enabled others in the group to come forward and share their own story. It was powerful to watch what happened. Good on you Viv! What courage she showed to all who were able to witness her story. Over the coming days, I will acknowledge the magnificent people who donated in order for this to happen.
Bless YOU, ALL!
