Recently, the Berwick District Woodworkers Club held its annual Gala Day.
Through this last year members have been working hard making a large assortment of toys for local charities.
Our Gala Day is a culmination of the great effort by our members producing these toys.
We have around seven charities who we invite on the day and present the toys to them to take back to the children and families under their care.
The Berwick Primary School choir sang a selection of well-known songs and some famous Christmas carols. They did a terrific job – thanks to the children and teachers!
The pictures show the large collection of toys displayed in the function room at the Old Cheese Factory that is going to the needy families.
A big thank you, firstly, goes to all our members who have made the toys for this big day.
Secondly, to all those members who helped in getting this event organised and set up. And thirdly, to all the visitors who joined us on this great day.
So, in closing, we will see you all next year when we will do it all again!
