Thank You for Supporting Our Ladies Lunch – Together We Raised £4,000!

We’re thrilled to share the wonderful success of our recent Ladies Lunch at Mottram Hall, where we raised an incredible £4,000 in support of the Rossendale Trust!

The afternoon began on a high note with live music from the talented Fiddlestix, setting the perfect tone for a day full of joy and generosity. Guests were greeted with a glass of fizz and invited to browse a delightful array of stalls from local businesses, including SOS Bramhall, Handmade by Rebecca, Scents by Zen, Jola Designs, Tropics, and Bibiemjay.

Our Head of PR & Fundraising, Sue Heaven, warmly welcomed everyone and delivered a heartfelt speech, powerfully highlighting how vital fundraising is to the Trust—and how it truly transforms the lives of the people we support.

A delicious two-course lunch followed, accompanied by lively conversation, laughter, and the buzz of our much-anticipated raffle, featuring fabulous prizes generously donated by our hosts and stallholders. The day was brought to a stylish close with a glamorous fashion showcase by the ladies of SOS Boutique, Bramhall, adding a final flourish to a memorable event.

We extend our sincere thanks to everyone who attended, donated, shopped, and supported the event. Special appreciation goes to our wonderful stallholders and to Mottram Hall for their outstanding hospitality. And finally thank you Fiddlestix for the wonderful entertainment and to Kathryn from Captured By Life photography for capturing the day on camera.

Every penny raised will go directly towards helping adults with learning disabilities live more independently and achieve their personal goals.

Thank you for being part of something so special—we can’t wait to welcome you again next year!
