October is national Breast Cancer Awareness month, which Cherry Lodge Cancer Care marks each year with its Pink Barrow Tombola in The Spires Shopping Centre in Barnet.

This year’s event will take place on Saturday 21st October from 11am until 4pm. Cherry Lodge Cancer Care will be helping raise awareness of breast cancer as well as raising money for our information and support services.

To help you look good in the new fashion season you are invited to come along to the Dawn Ledgard Autumn 2017 Clothes Sale. These popular seasonal sales offer a good value opportunity to buy from an extensive range of beautiful designer clothing, jewellery and accessories.

As usual, this sale will be held at the Hadley Wood Association Centre (behind the Tennis Club). As past customers know, buying here is much more convenient than a trip into the West End. It is also much more enjoyable and reliable than buying online. Why not bring a friend and take a break to chat over coffee?

Donations of £1 at the door, plus commission on sales, will be given to Cherry Lodge Cancer Care to help fund our valuable services for people affected by cancer.

Enjoy a Halloween themed evening of Brews and Soul at Barnet’s Black Horse pub in Wood Street on Saturday 28th October 2017, from 7.30pm until 1am.

Frighteningly good music will be provided by Soulstice resident DJs, Double-J and Jester Groove, plus that man Fat Freddie M.

The Black Horse staff will be offering a wide selection of cask beers along with a great wine list and an ever-changing choice of craft beers, including the now famous Soul Brew.

Visit the Summer Soulstice website for full details. Buy Fat Monster Brews tickets online or in person direct from the venue. Tickets cost £5 in advance, plus a limited number of £10 tickets on the night (unless previously sold out).
