In addition, Chris Hancock presented the benevolent fund with a cheque for £1,001.52, transferring funds that remained in the former Sunrise Club at the time of its closure.
Twenty-three Whitsters members and guests attended the event.
LCN’s Chris Shepherd conducted the charity auction in a lively manner to the entertainment of all.
Seven lots were on offer: a bottle of wine, donated by Tim Beard; three bottles of wine donated by Chris Hancock of the Sunlight Service Group; £50 of drycleaning vouchers given by Johnson Cleaners UK; one year’s subscription to LCN; dinner for two, and as a surprise lot, a bottle of champagne, both courtesy of the Holiday Inn, and £100 of Marks & Spencer vouchers donated by Chris Sander, Johnson Apparelmaster.
Whitsters honorary secretary David Hart said the club was encouraged by response to this first event and a second charity supper will be held on 26 October.
