Last Saturday saw many of Radlett Circle along with 290 other women for the annual Eastern Regional Lunch at the glamorous Watford Hilton(!). It was a fantastic afternoon; we expected no less with the fabulous Area 21 organising it, including our very own Suzanne Hoenig.
The speaker was superb: Tricia Stewart, one of the original "Calendar Girls" and played by Helen Mirren in the film. She couldn't have picked a better audience with 300 women average age about 40 after several glasses of wine. The picture shows her having collected the first £1,000 for Leukemia Research from Area 21 Chair, Wendy Barber, and there is more to come. Two of their new calendars went for £200 each at the auction plus there are contributions from further raffle purchases and a percentage from the photographers. More photos to follow!
Next meeting Thu 8th Feb at Rushes Restaurant, Studio Way, Borehamwood - 7.45 for 8pm.
