Thanks to everyone who came along to the brilliant evening at the Cafe on Friday 13th March 2026 to listen to the amazing talents of Dora and the Explorers in aid of fundraising for the restoration of the cafe.

After costs we raised an outstanding £1480 from the evening, including ticket sales, raffle and drinks.

This money have now been transferred to the FOGP Just Giving account and you can see our total community fundraising amount at the following link:

We would like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who bought a ticket and came along and special thanks to the brilliant Dora and the Explorers who volunteered their time and music for free!

Eager to still support us? .....

Fear not! Our next fundraising event is on March 28th at the Rose Garden Cafe where we will be holding our amazing annual Easter Craft Sale. between 10am - 3pm.

Not only will we have the usual amazing craft gifts donated by our wonderful volunteers along with local supermarkets, meaning you can stock up for your loved ones - but this year we will also have the Magician Benoit Pierre BenZ doing table magic in the cafe on the day AND we will have our Rose Garden IPA (brewed by the wonderful Little Mesters Brewery) on sale.

Its going to be a cracking (get the joke!?) day - so please head over to the cafe and support us. We're edging ever closer to our current goal of £37,500 with your amazing and generous support!

See you there and do feel free to spread the word!
