MARCH 2021

Abernethy Senior Citizens Committee would like to thank Branstons for their very generous cash donation, also their generous donation of food hampers, bottles of wine and spirits, and several bags of potatoes. These were raffled and delivered, socially distanced, by members of the Committee, and were gratefully received by all the winners. We hope all our Senior Citizens are well and staying safe. The members of the Committee were sorry that they were unable to hold the party this year but hope that you all enjoyed spending your Christmas vouchers in Brian's shop.

Grateful thanks must also go to Brian Greig for his help in organising this.
