The Wimbledon Foundation celebrates the work of local charities
The Wimbledon Foundation, the charity of The All England Lawn Tennis Club and The Championships, hosted its annual reception last week celebrating the work of local charities supported by the Foundation.
Representatives from 48 charities and community organisations awarded funding by the Wimbledon Foundation in 2018 attended, alongside the Mayor of Merton Councillor Mary Curtin and the Mayor of Wandsworth Cllr Piers McCausland.
Guests enjoyed live jazz by talented young musicians from the Merton Music Foundation, moonlit tours of Centre Court, the chance to have their photographs taken with The Championship trophies, and of course, strawberries and cream.
Everyone at the South London Press thanks you for your continued support.
Former Housing Secretary Robert Jenrick has encouraged everyone in the country who can afford to do so to buy a newspaper, and told the Downing Street press briefing: “A free country needs a free press, and the newspapers of our country are under significant financial pressure.”
If you can afford to do so, we would be so grateful if you can make a donation which will allow us to continue to bring stories to you, both in print and online.
