DOVERCOURT’S ladies held a charity day.

Fourteen of the club’s ladies entertained 18 visitors from other clubs, in bright sunshine but a cold wind.

All the ladies played a spider, with the winner being Carol Marshall.

The highest scoring winner was Rita Sharpe, from Thorrington.

Brenda Vernaven won the wooden spoon.

It was all great fun and the sum of £201 was raised for Essex Air Ambulance.
