“The enthusiasm for the Concert for Life has been amazing” said Karen Dilley from Integrated Cancer Therapies. “We have had many calls from Gretton about the therapies we offer so thought we’d come back to give the village a free taster.”
Karen continued “We have been astounded by the village’s generosity and would like to thank the Gretton WI for their donation for the use of the hall on Saturday 26th November.”
