On the evening of 27th July 2012 a fundraising event was held at Divine Wines by popular local owner Jenny Holt. The evening was for a Silent Auction and Raffle to support Jenny's Himalayan Trek in aid of St Margaret's Hospice.

Jenny Holt, proprietor of Divine WinesThank you to the following local businesses and individuals for their support:

The Silent Auction made £1,011.00 and the raffle raised £80.00. So the grand total on the night was £1,091.00. A good time was had by all who attended with the wine flowing freely (which probably helped to send the total up).
