A Pamper for a Good Cause

A Pamper for a Good Cause this September

September NWN A Pamper for a Good Cause – Gateshead 

Join us on Wednesday 7th September for A Pamper for a Good Cause

Our member, Helen Huitson, Regional Director for The Body Shop Home, is going to be treating us to a mini pamper session. Offering hand massages and mini facials.

An opportunity to meet up, have a meal and be pampered all at once. Helen will show us some of her favourite Body Shop products and I am sure she will have a game or two up her sleeve 🙂

Secondly, it will also be an opportunity for us to raise some money for a local North East Charity, ‘Changing Minds With Pick Up A Penny’ as we’ll be collecting any donations offered for our treatments.

Sara from ‘Changing Minds With Pick Up A Penny’ has recently provided great advice and support to a couple of our members’ families.

On this occassion, we’ll meet in the function room at Ravensworth Arms from 6pm for a 6.30pm start – a delicious 2-course meal. The Ravensworth have a decent sized function room and we are limiting the numbers to just 20 so there will still be plenty of space.

So here’s the hard decision, we have Ravensworth’s menu below. Please choose a main and dessert when booking.
