Tetherdown often relies on the money raised by the Friends of Tetherdown to pay for things that are essential for our children’s education and well-being, and not simply the ‘nice to haves’. So, a HUGE thank you for participating and continuing to support our children’s school!!!

Wishing you all a safe and happy summer holiday from Friends of Tetherdown
