Two amazing weekend events! On Friday night 29th, the Flamin Ukes and the last ever Travelling Trends Fashion Show on Saturday 30th...both were fundraisers for Greyfriars and loads of fun was had by all who came along to both! Thank you to all who came and supported us and especially to our brilliant team of volunteers! We could not do it without you! A very special thank you to the Flamin Ukes who asked if they could play for us to raise funds for the centre. We are so lucky to have you! A special thanks to pam Brown for these great photos!
