A dedicated fundraiser who has been serving meals for a decade has been thanked for her support of a Sidmouth charity.

Gill Hodge, caterer at Sidmouth Cricket, Tennis and Croquet Club, held her last Sunday lunch for The Friends of The Fortfield on Sunday, September 22.

During the lunch a raffle was held in aid of Sidmouth Hospiscare and raised £163.

The event marked the end of 12 years of 'amazing service' at the club.

Debbie Snelgrove, from Sidmouth Hospiscare's fundraising team, said: "Gill has been a great supporter of Sidmouth Hospiscare, helping with our annual coffee mornings, and hugely generous with her time and providing cakes and raffle prizes for our events.

"Sidmouth Hospiscare would like to thank Gill for her support and generosity and we wish her well in her continuing business catering for private functions."

The charity has two upcoming events including its annual coffee morning at Sidmouth Cricket Club on Friday, October 11, and a fashion show at Kennaway House on November 7.

Tickets for the fashion show, held in conjunction with Chapter clothing, are available from Chapter or Potbury's.
