Prim Villa, a 78-bed facility in Primrose Hill specialises in the care of those who have Alzheimer\u2019s or related dementias.<\/p>\n
The Forget Me Not progressive tea fund-raiser will run from July to September.<\/p>
It is a sociable, fun way to help Prim Villa raise the funds that they urgently need.<\/p>\n
How to get involved:<\/p>
An individual, company or group of people can host a tea party in their home or workplace.<\/p>\n
You host a tea party, serve tea and cake, and charge an entrance fee for your guests.<\/p>\n
All the proceeds made from the tea parties will go towards the Prim Villa foundation.<\/p>\n
The fund-raiser is called a progressive tea so you can ask each of your guests to host a tea party or event and then they can invite their own guests.<\/p>\n
Their guests are then asked to do the same and so it pays forward.<\/p>\n
Churches and women\u2019s auxiliaries have taken on this challenge as have teachers, nurses and groups of passionate people.<\/p>\n
Anyone who would like to support this foundation is encouraged to host a tea party and enrich the lives of those living at Prim Villa.<\/p>\n
Some examples of functions which have been held are a soup and sherry evening, lunch, high tea, dinner or anything that brings a group of people together with a common goal to help Prim Villa.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet\u2019s celebrate what we are still able to recall and enjoy memories and special times with friends and loved ones,\u201d said Sharon Flint, the manager of Prim Villa.<\/p>\n
