A Tameside man is delighted after receiving a 75th birthday card from Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, days after meeting her at the charity where he volunteers.
On Tuesday 3 May, George Hall, 75, from Mossley, attended an event called The Big Jubilee Lunch at Emmaus Mossley to celebrate the branch's 25th year of operation and to build excitement for the Queen's upcoming Platinum Jubilee. The Big Jubilee Lunch was a private event for volunteers and invited members of the community, who were then surprised with an appearance by the Duchess of Cornwall herself.
The Duchess joined the group for lunch and took a tour of the Emmaus Mossley shop, showing particular interest in the upcycled items for sale, such as bunting made by volunteers from recycled fabrics.
