On Wednesday afternoon, Sue and I attended a reception for His Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester at St George' Garrison Church, Woolwich. The Duke is the patron of the trust that looks after the church and we were invited because we have donated money to their latest appeal, the building of a Gurkha and Commonwealth memorial garden on a plot adjoining the church.
The reception ...
... was opened by the chairman of the trust, Tim Barnes KC, MBE, ...
... who welcomed His Royal Highness ...
... and the other guests to the event.
We were then entertained by the choir of Sherrington Primary School, Charlton ...
... and members of REACH ('a theatre company for adults with additional needs') who are based in the Tramshed in Woolwich.
After the entertainment (and whilst the rest of us enjoyed a drink and some cake), the Duke spent time circulating around the reception attendees, and especially spending time with the choir and the theatre group, before leaving.
