Wellswood
District League of Friends held their 6th annual Trafalgar Dinner on
Friday 21st October at the Royal Torbay Yacht Club and it proved to
be a very successful evening raising over £1,500 for the League.
All guests were welcomed 'on board' by the Torbay Sea Cadets under
the Command of Lt Skingle RNR and their presence helped to set the
scene for this traditional celebration of the Battle of Trafalgar.
Lynne
Hookings (Chairman of both the League and Wellswood District)
introduced the top table guests and welcomed everyone to the Dinner.
Lynne thanked everyone for their support, especially the sponsors,
and expressed how lucky we are to have such an excellent local
hospital and how proud the League is to support it.
The guests of honour were Commodore Simon Williams ADC,RN, Commodore
Britannia Royal Naval College and Paula Vasco-Knight, Chief
Executive, South Devon Healthcare Foundation Trust. Their speeches
were most enjoyable and their contribution to the event was very
much appreciated.
