Two weeks ago today, we were busy getting ready for the biggest event on our calendar, The Cocktail Party. Again this year, funds raised will be donated to Cranford Hospice, so they can build a new purpose built facility that will continue to provide palliative care to the Hawke's Bay community for years to come.

The event was held at Toitoi - Hawke's Bay Arts & Events Centre and was supported by a huge list of Sponsors and Auction Lot donors, too many to name them all in once post. But once again, it was an honour and a privalege to work alongside the Hastings Karamu Rotary Club on this wonderful event, that makes a real difference in so many people lives.
