Dear St. Edmund's Day Dinner Guests,

It’s just over a week to go now before the third St. Edmund's Day black- tie Dinner, and it's going to be a really super, fun evening starting at 6.30 and ending at 11.30pm. We thought we would whet your appetites with some advance information about what's on offer besides, of course, the delicious food, wine and great company in our wonderful Cathedral setting.

Thanks to the significant support of our community, we have 25 amazing prizes in the Three Grand Raffle which will be displayed early in the evening, so do bring some cash! Here are some of the prizes:

Hotel DBB stays at the Bildeston Crown and with the Chestnut Group – Fortnum & Mason hampers - restaurant meals including One Bull and The Dog at Norton – a Falconry experience - a Coffee Machine – an Air Fryer, to name just a few. A fabulous ensemble!

There is more to relish as you see what's on offer in the charity auction when you will have the rare opportunity to bid on exclusive items that money simply cannot buy. This is not just an auction but a chance to support worthy local causes and make a difference in the lives of those in need. For what's on offer, please see the document below describing the lots Auction Lots.

Please forward this to all those attending with you so they can appreciate the wonderful evening we have planned and have time to consider the opportunities.

We can’t wait to see you on Wednesday 19^th November.
