Sandra Grafton and Ann Piggott spent time with special guests – including Lauren Laverne and Cherry Healey – to begin Oxfam’s 2013 Get Together campaign, which takes place each year around International Women’s Day on March 8.
The two friends raised more than £600 for the project last year by hosting a coffee morning and since then, they have raised another £800 by organising an Oxjam music event in October.

Sandra said: “It was fantastic get together with my friends for coffee and cakes. It was a fun and social event to talk about well-known women who inspire us and raise money for Oxfam’s projects that support women and girls living in poverty.”
