The fundraising day managed to raise €569.30,which will be used to support the work of the Alzheimer Society in Meath.

A Tea & Coffee morning took place in Knightsbridge Coffee Shop and this was well supported with visitors throughout the morning including members of Trim Active Retirement.

Later that afternoon, a Tea Dance took place in Knightsbridge Village Hall. Residents and their families were treated to tea, coffee and cupcakes as well as music and entertainment, which was kindly provided by Trim local, Matt Gilsenan and Navan local, Michael Meegan. The great entertainment & music encouraged plenty of dancing and visitors included Maura Howley of the Alzheimer Society.
