Visit to EHDC by Mrs Annette Brooke, MP

Annette Brooke receives a horse-shoe as a souvenir of her visit.



Annette Brooke gets a quick tour in a carriage with Wally, our Group Organiser, down to the Holton Lee viewpoint that looks over Poole Harbour to the RSPB Reserve on the other side.

On Thursday last week, as a small local charity, it was a privilege to receive a visit by local MP, Mrs Annette Brooke.

Our regular disabled drivers suffered only a minor delay in good spirit for Annette's drive . Meanwhile she was able to gain a valuable insight to all that we do for disabled people by talking to Wally and seeing first-hand the smooth operations carried out by our team of dedicated volunteers as we continued with our regular drives.

Wally presented Annette with a souvenir of her visit - a horse shoe beautifully gift wrapped thanks to the courtesy of "Something Special" in Broadstone. I bet that's the most unusual item they've gift wrapped at "Something Special" !!
