Co-ordin8 held a very successful ‘Ladies Vintage Afternoon Tea’, at Paignton Parish Church Hall.
This was supported by the charity’s trustees, staff and volunteers. Entertainment was provided in the form of live singing from the very talented and local ‘Mr Mike Orchard’, who delivered some classical Michael Buble to set the retro atmosphere in motion.

Freshly made patisseries, savouries and canapés were made by Co-ordin8’s very own qualified chef Mr Richard Forster, with other male staff waiting on tables.
All freshly baked and using real fruit and natural ingredients (scones thanks to Lou Orchard). Trustee Jan Drayton helps behind the scenes. Vintage Tea Sets and Antique Flower Vases were used on all tables.
Banquet-style table dressing was topped with antique china and floral vases carrying real fresh flowers.
All together the event was a huge hit with many praises and a successful raffle of quality prizes.
Ready to go! Things fill up as all our guests arrive. Finishing touches made the day so special. I’ll drink to that said Helen Leech. Mike Orchard singing live.
All monies generously raised on the day will be used to buy materials to help continue to provide happy, meaningful and memorable experiences for both the ladies and gentlemen that attend Co-ordin8.
