Working with Alzheimer Dementia Support (ADS) their chosen charity, three of the MR team joined a group of guests for the day out. The trip which started at Boulters Lock in Maidenhead took a gentle cruise along the river, enjoying views of Cliveden before turning around and heading towards Bray .
The guests were treated to a traditional English afternoon tea, whilst being entertained by a live singer who sang all the old favorites, supported by backing singers Craig and Jade from Mortgage Required.
Tracy Gordon Director at Mortgage who took part in the trip commented, “ We have supported this charity for a number of years, sponsoring various events and donating much needed funds. This was however a really special day where we were able to meet with those who benefit from the work the charity does. It was great to talk with some really interesting people and share in what was a fun and relaxed afternoon.”
