Report on Fundraiser

The day started out fresh and sunny with a quick visit to meet and greet Georgina Cronin - who likes to be called Sally - at Javea BookWorld.  Previously, we had only met via the telephone and email, so I wanted to make sure that she would know my face and I could welcome her properly.

Later in the day, after a few spins of the confusion at the Casa de Cultura - Javea - the show was on the road. 

Sally delivered a heart felt story of her life as an extra large women. At times the tales of her journey were shocking and extreme beyond belief! 

However, her road to recovery was the real delight as she shared with the audience her achievements, gratifications and new found self.

Sally wrapped up her speaking engagement by answering a few questions from the audience.

Then - Suzanna Mace, Events Co-Ordinater launched into the Prize Draw - where by a record 18 sponsored gifts were donated. 

Sally retired to the lobby to sell and sign her book. 

In the end, fun was had by all.
