A BEWDLEY church will be hosting a vintage tea party to raise funds for its charity that supports struggling families at Christmas.

Wyre Forest MP Mark Garnier will attend the event, which will be held at St George’s Hall in Bewdley on July 11 from 3pm with all proceeds going to ‘Touching Hearts’.

A group from Riverside Church in the town set up the charity seven years ago to help families across Wyre Forest by starting a Christmas party for them.

Entry cost £5 per person and includes fresh sandwiches, homemade cakes and scones and unlimited tea or coffee.

Tickets are available by calling 07871 876646 or via the Riverside church office.
