On Sunday 21st September I went on a Patisserie course at the renowned Ashburton Cookery School.

Charity at Tarka

Over the last twelve months we have a had a pot for North Devon Hospice on our counter and your regular donations of small change have amounted to £77. Thank you so much.

In August we hosted our second Breast Cancer Afternoon Tea event and this year we raised a staggering £425. This was all down to all of you who supported the event buying tickets, raffle and craft sale.

 

Thank you so much
