Pilgrims Hospice Coffee Morning
The Mayor was warmly welcomed by the people who have been fundraising for The Pilgrims Hospice for longer than the building has existed. For 5 years they raised money for a dream which didn't even have a planned venue. Now, 30 years later they continue to raise funds to maintain the high level of care that the patients deserve. The Mayoress couldn't resist buying a Kentish Apple Cake and some home made marmalade.
