On 23rd March this year, instead of celebrating her birthday with a party and a bottle of bubbly, Autism Trust trustee and regular fundraiser Jan Percival hosted a coffee morning for the charity, receiving donations and Buy a Brick pledges instead of presents! The event was held at The High Street Café in Ixworth, Suffolk and raised over £1000 in a mere hour and a half. A big thank you to all who attended, made cakes, bought cakes, ‘Buy a Bricked’, donated and so on. And a belated Happy Birthday to Jan.
Take a look at some photos from the event:
