The Downton Afternoon

It was a pleasure to see everyone arrive for the Downton Afternoon Tea, especially those that dressed in clothing of the era. Everyone looked fabulous!

Guests started with the hot savouries and sandwiches then were entertained by the Brisbane Classics Club with a short musical performance. The sweet course followed and included coconut macrons, chocolate eclairs and scones with jam and cream.

The raffle raised $115 for the Gunnados Fundraising Team who are participating in the Weekend to End Women's Cancer, benefitting QIMR Berghofer and The Royal Brisbane Women's Hospital. This is a 60km walk over the last weekend in October and funds raised go to cancer research projects as well as treatment care facilities and staff. In 2014, the walk raised 1.3 million dollars.

The next event's are the Tea and Tarot on Saturday 11th April, Mother's Day High Tea on Sunday 11th May and the Cancer Council Biggest Morning Tea on Saturday 30th May.
