Party held to celebrate 20 years of Support for Living and say a fond farewell to Nigel Turner
There was a great turnout for the Support for Living 20 year party held on 24 March 2010 at the Holiday Inn, Brentford Lock. It was a wonderful evening but sad too, as we wished Nigel Turner, Chief Executive of Support for Living for 18 years, a fond farewell as he leaves to climb mountains and do lots of other exciting things! Nigel raises money for the Teenage Cancer Trust - you can visit his website if you want to see what he is up to www.k2010.org.
A special thanks to all the organisers and the staff at the Holiday Inn. The food was great, the band were great, the venue was great. All in all, it was great!
