THE Marie Curie charity is calling on people in the Wellington area to hold a Blooming Great Tea Party.

Natalie Millbank, its community fundraiser in Somerset, said: “Just pick a date, send some invites and simply raise a cuppa between June 23-25. You can choose to make everything yourself or pop to the shops for some tasty treats, as long as you price each slice or put a donation box by the front door.”
