Hospice High Tea…the perfect Mother’s Day gift!

April 7, 2022 April 2022 No Comments

What could be a better way to say ‘thank you’ for Mother’s Day than treating her to a High Tea? Hospice Wairarapa and the Holdsworth Lions Club are holding their third annual High Tea fundraiser on Sunday May 22nd to raise much needed funds to support the 21+ free services Hospice offers.

With lockdown curtailing time spent with friends and family, this is the perfect opportunity for a get together. When you arrive at Ranfurly House in Masterton, you can enjoy a complimentary glass of bubbles and settle in for an afternoon of fun and laughter, challenge yourselves with a quiz and even enter the best headwear competition. 

There will also be raffles and spot prizes on offer, as well as delicious High Tea treats generously prepared and served by the Lions. Last year tickets sold out and we had a long wait list, so don’t miss out. Tickets are on sale from 4 April and can be reserved at bookings@hospicewairarapa.co.nz or by phoning 06 378 8888.
