Labour at Lutterworth Feast Day

The Branch enjoyed running our annual stall at the Feast Day. On this occasion, we did a picture quiz and a plant sale. The money we raised was donated to the Lord Mayors Appeal, as we do each year, and Mrs M Smith won the prize of a box of chocolates. Having struggled with hurricane-style winds and torrential rain in previous years to man our stall, it was a pleasant surprise to have good weather, and everyone enjoyed the day!

Party in the rain!

Members of Lutterworth Branch Labour party defied the downpour on Sunday17th July, to enjoy their annual fund-raising and social, "Tea and cakes", in a member`s garden. Along with lovely herbacious borders, the group enjoyed delicious home made cakes, quizes and music; and over £250 was raised. On a more serious note, the event was addressed by the Leicester South MP, and Lord Willy Bach, who discussed aspects of the economy and the recent successes for Labour in Leicester with the new Mayor and the by-election in Leicester South.

Lutterworth Branch will once again be having a stall at Lutterworth Feast day on August 20th. At this event, we will be raising money for the Mayors Appeal, as is our usual policy.
