***** RGA EVENTS - NOTICE *****

CANCELLED - Sunday 10th August - Party in the Park
It is with regreat that I'm having to cancel "Picnic in the Park" on Sunday 10th August. I have checked the weather forecast and it predicts rain for the whole day in London! I wouldn't like people to come all the way into town in the rain as there wouldn't be anywhere for us to go! I will be rearranging another event in the "not so distance" future, watch this space! Feel free to contact me at pat.newman@restrictedgrowth.co.uk for any more details.
