Members of Bexley Deaf Club thoroughly enjoyed themselves at the "Christmas Raffles Draw & Mince pie with wine" and also Christmas present from the Santa Claus for all children here in Whitehall Centre on Friday 19th December 2003.

Firstly, there was a magic show for the children organised by committee member Louise Freeman. The magic was specifically a suitable for hearing children because there was a lot of talking, however a movement magic would be an ideal for the deaf children.

There were a lot of Christmas presents for all the children from a Santa Claus, which Mark Watson, kindly offered to do. It was lovely evening with mince pie and wine for all, and also Christmas cards exchanged.

Finally, there was a Great Christmas Raffles Draw organised by Sarah Shering that being drawn with so many eye catching faces. There were many cash prizes range from £150 to £20 totals of £500 cash.

Those lucky people who won the top 3 prizes as following:

Pat Clark won the top prize of £150 cash

Barbara Vacher won the third prize of £50 cash

The reminder of above £500 cash prizes won by 4 people with £30 each, 2 people won £20 each and 4 people won £10 each.

Thanks to Sarah Shering for organising the raffles and also to committee members who help out with the raffles.
