On Saturday morning March 3, about 25 Lowveld women dressed in pink enjoyed a Women’s High Tea at Galaxy Bingo, i’langa Mall.
This event was hosted as a fundraiser for the Nelspruit Hospice. Nelspruit Hospice is a registered NPO that relies on donations to make their work possible. Its holistic care approach includes trained nurses, social workers and a medical doctor.
The witty Jo-Anne Wyndham of Radio Laeveld was the MC for the event, while local artist Anne-Mari entertained the ladies with her lovely voice. Daleen Hillicks of Hillicks Model and Talent was the main speaker and talked about etiquette and her road of recovery after having suffered from a stroke.
The guests enjoyed delicious tea and delicacies prepared by Ingrid’s Kitchen and stood a change to win prizes. Wyndham presented various games in which the women participated. These competitions included prizes for the woman with the biggest handbag at the event, the prize for the two friends who have known each other for the longest period of time, and many more.
