"Our aim, as well as raising funds, was for everyone to get together, have a cuppa and some cake and more importantly to come and have a chat.

"The money raised will go towards Dementia UK’s specialist Admiral Nurses, who provide clinical and emotional support that enables people to live more positively with dementia.

"We would like to say a big thank you to Buckingham community who supported the event."
