Simon and Louise Middle, on behalf of Gloucestershire Root, Fruit and Grain Society, hosted a 'Thank you ARC-Addington Fund' Charity Family Lunch at their Mussel End Farm in Sandhurst.

180 people sat down for a fantastic lunch, with superb beef from Simon's farm. Roger Bush from Bruton Knowles and President of the Society, conducted a spirited charity auction which raised £3260

Special thanks to Sam Samson for all her hard work in coordinating such a marvellous event.
