Tea party celebrates 60 years of charity
The volunteers, some of whom have learning disabilities, work at the charity’s shop and Buddys Café in South Farm Road, Worthing.
This was part of a programme of events this year to celebrate the Worthing Mencap’s 60th anniversary. The mayor cut a diamond jubilee cake to mark the occasion.
