A free family fundraising afternoon will be held at Stone Cricket Club this month in support of Breast Cancer Now and a local woman, Jem, who has recently been diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer.
The event takes place at Stone Cricket Club, Lichfield Road, on Friday 21 August 2026, from 4pm onwards.
Jem’s family are organising the afternoon after she began an intensive treatment programme. The event will include a cake sale, raffle, tombola, children’s tombola, sandwiches and refreshments, with the club bar open for drinks.
Rose Moody, Jem’s sister, said
“Unfortunately, our youngest sister Jem recently received the heartbreaking diagnosis of an aggressive Breast Cancer.
“She has been incredibly brave and strong undergoing an extremely intensive treatment programme.
“In honour of Jem, we are hosting a family friendly Breast Cancer Now Afternoon Tea this August. Stone Cricket Club have very kindly offered to host us.”
Entry is free and the event is open to anyone who would like to go along, whether for a short visit or for the afternoon.
A wide range of prizes have already been donated for the raffle and tombola, including vouchers, family days out, food and drink prizes, children’s items, gifts and local business donations.
Money raised will go to Breast Cancer Now, the research and care charity supporting people affected by breast cancer.
