"A very big thank you to Lauren and her amazing team of volunteers for making it so special. There were brilliant prizes to be won in both bingo and a Thurrock quiz, which our guests loved!

"Thank you also to Maggie for organising today. And, as always, our deepest gratitude to our incredible volunteers who take such good care of our guests. We truly couldn't do this without you all."
