Warkworth’s Old Masonic Hall was awash with every shade of pink last week, when Warkworth Library organised a Pink Ribbon Morning Tea as a fundraiser for Breast Cancer Foundation NZ.
Nearly 90 people in pink hats, clothing, wigs and masks enjoyed music, coffee and cake, as well as an honest and inspiring talk from Tracey and Kevin Lawton on living with a breast cancer diagnosis and its aftermath.
Local businesses and library users donated a huge number of auction and raffle prizes, including a range of bags and accessories by Trelise Cooper.
One of the organisers, Katie Mitchell, said the event had been a huge success, raising nearly $4000, and she expressed heartfelt thanks to supporters.
