Armed Forces Day Afternoon Tea
Supporting Veterans and Families, hosted by the Mayor Debbie Whitworth
Saturday, 25th July, Carlton House Club, Olney
The Mayor of Olney hosted a special Armed Forces Afternoon Tea on Saturday 25th July, with all proceeds supporting the Royal British Legion and its work with veterans and their families.
Mayor Debbie said: ‘I would like to thank everyone who bought tickets and is coming along in support of this event, and what a fantastic afternoon it is going to be.
"It was lovely to see everyone enjoying themselves and having fun. We are going to be entertained by the very talented Bailey Devon (Olney’s very own ‘Ol Blue Eyes Sinatra’ ) whose voice I just have to say is pure gold... I thank you Bailey for supporting us and Bailey gave us an amazing performance.
"Thanks also to to Mark Luckin who gave his time to sort out all the sound tech for me, very much appreciated. Thanks to the Phonebox and Orchard Press for their support with poster design, printing and tickets – a recognised local business with over 30 years of supporting our community.
"Without the support of local businesses there would be no grand raffle at events such as this, so I’m really pleased that everyone wanted to join me in thanking these local businesses below who kindly donated some superb raffle prizes. Their support and generosity means a great deal and on behalf of the Veterans I say a big thank you to:

One more shout out to a local business: Lee of KyeLee Flowers, Weston Road who made all the beautiful table decorations free of charge – they are stunning, and will be sold off at the end to raise even more money for the cause. Thanks of course to the lovely ladies who will be helping on the day - Debbie Wiggins, Frances Ferris and Wendy Cox and to Stephen Clarke who volunteered to help and put together a great little quiz for us.
Last but not least, I want to thank the lovely Jo Killick and her team at the Carlton House Club for the amazing venue, for providing a fantastic buffet and for looking after everyone so well."
Debbie will send us an update when all final donations are in and counted. So keep your eyes on this site for the latest news.
