THANK YOU to everyone who came last time, (Sunday Mar 23rd 2025)...
Everyone who made a lantern, everyone who danced, everyone who played or performed, everyone who helped and volunteered, everyone who dressed-up, everyone who stayed-up past their bed-time, everyone who bumped into an old friend and said 'isn't this brilliant'.
And a special thank you to everyone who made a donation, so we can do it all again next year.
