L Fulcher's Dinner Dance
L Fulcher Funeral Directors in Bury St Edmunds recently organised a Dinner Dance following the success of a similar event three years ago.
This year, the Dinner Dance was in aid of the East Anglian Air Ambulance, a local cause reliant entirely upon charitable donations and one which is particularly poignant to funeral director, Jennie Myers.
She said: "My father required the services of the East Anglian Air Ambulance in 2015 and wouldn’t be with us today if it had not been for the invaluable service they provide to the people of East Anglia. From promoting the event, to the administration, right down to approaching local businesses for raffle and auction prizes, our hard work paid off and we raised in excess of £4,000."
Jennie and her colleagues funeral directors, Oliver Coote and Hayley Peck, and funeral service arranger, Susie Morgans, all helped to organise this hugely successful night which was attended by 145 people.
