The Gala Dinner took place outside the front of the Church within the English Cemetery, and some 80 people shared in the celebration. .

The dinner, which was organised by our Fundraising Director, David Tweed, included entertainment provided by Vienna-based mezzo-soprano Stella Grigorian, with Damian Whiteley on the piano, as well as an auction with some outstanding prizes, and interviews with Marijke Cazemier, National President of our partner organisation, Age in Spain, and our very own Chaplain, Fr Louis. The dinner itself was served by The Carvery Restaurant in Torremolinos and our thanks go out to Mark and Karen Cornwell for such a splendid feast.

It is too early to say how much money was raised, as donations are still coming in, but it looks like it will be upwards of some €5000. If you would like to make a donation to support this appeal, you can still do so here. We are so grateful for the generosity of our congregation, visitors and supporters. Thank you!
