Pickering Cancer Drop-in Centre celebrated its eighteenth anniversary late last year with a black-tie dinner and charity gala at the Spa Hotel on Mount Ephraim.
Two hundred people, including some of the charity’s volunteers and members were invited along to champion Pickering, which helps support those who have been touched by cancer and whose drop-in centre is located at 27 Monsoon Road in Tunbridge Wells.
On the night, the charity’s co-founder Polly Taylor was appointed as its first official president and was honoured with a ‘hugs and kisses’ plaque by Olympic Gold medallist and patron, Dame Kelly Holmes.
The sporting star said: “I have met millions of people during my life and during my career but have not met anyone with such a heart of gold as Polly.”
