Guests were transported to a Greek Taverna complete with olive trees and pink blossom for a Mamma Mia themed ladies lunch that took place at The Mere Golf Resort and Spa in Knutsford.

Around 350 guests and patrons of The Children's Adventure Farm Trust enjoyed the Mediterranean-inspired afternoon which included browsing through a shopping village offering artisanal items, as well as some lively games, Abba-inspired dancing and a raffle. Prizes from the raffle included a stunning £1,000 diamond necklace and a Mulberry handbag. Nobody left empty-handed; each guest took home a goodie bag worth £70. The afternoon raised an astonishing £46,000 which will help the charity provide holidays for terminally ill, disabled and disadvantaged children from all over the region.
