The annual fundraiser has grown year to year and is heavily supported by the local community and businesses. “We are on target for a record year,” Annette said. “A visit to the Lions Childhood Cancer Research Foundation website will highlight some of the amazing stories of children whose health journey has been affected and greatly improved by the relationship between LCCRF and the health professionals.” This year’s Biggest High Tea is being held on Saturday 28 September at St John’s Church in Raymond Terrace. “The high quality of homemade food, raffles, silent auctions and great company will again be the focus for the event,” Annette said.
