Truly memorable on such a snowy, bitter-cold day in the hills. We were a surprise & perfectly colour co-ordinated with the maroon theme. Paula came in after ‘The Final Countdown ‘  followed by brill speeches & original poems  in this made-to -measure ceremony.

Mothers’ Day March 11th, 2018 @ Crewe Hall

New Charter Housing’s Christmas Party has been our annual December mainstay since 2005–apart from one year ! It’s so lovely to return to this familiar Ashton-under-Lyne venue–and the first time I found my way there easily -the return journey was less successful!
