Susannah said: “I can’t thank the local community enough for their support and generous donations of prizes, raffle ticket purchases and support.

“This event was a great opportunity to bring Stockbridge locals and business owners together to enjoy some fine food and drink in The Grange Club’s stunning surrounds while raising funds for a local charity which has just celebrated its 75th anniversary”.

More than 30 prizes worth over £1000 were raffled from a range of businesses during the event.
