Windsor Lions in the news - November 2005

MENCAP candlelight dinner

Another spectacular event will be held in he prestigious Guildhall Windsor on Friday the 25^th November.

The event ‘A gentlemen’s candlelit dinner’ is a ‘sell out’ every year, and has raised well over £100,000 during its long run.

This year will be even better than previous years = apart from a sumptuous meal and excellent wine there is entertainment from the internationally famous Mr Tony Jo – voted the ‘after dinner speaker of the year ‘ for which he won a coveted award, and then he was voted Top Comedian by the Variety Club of Great Britain.

There will be an auction for at least one stupendous item, and a raffle to raise much needed funds for MENCAP.

A strong contingent from the Lions Club of Windsor will be there as always and they will start the evening with the presentation of a cheque for £2,000.  Other community service organisations will be there as well. 

Guest of honour will be the Mayor of the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, Councillor Eric Wiles.  The host for the evening will be Douglas Hill the first Mayor of Eton.
