Venue
Shepherd Hall
St Thomas’ Hospital
Westminster Bridge Road
London SE1 7EH

6:30pm to late [hall open from 6]

Venue thanks to gav0106 and his team at St Thomas’ Hospital. For those of you who are new they are employed directly by the hospital and 100% of any profits we make from events and bar spend goes straight back to the Trust for projects involving patients and staff, so by supporting this event you will be giving back as well.

Hi All, sorry for delay in getting some more information, had a busy few days with Cancer Survivors Day and other big events.

For Friday:

Full bar available, we are suggesting - Wine/Beer/Cider/Fizz and Soft Drinks only as we set up the bars ad-hoc, unless anyone really wants spirits we can arrange this.
As always, we will have some great deals on wine and fizz ^

My wine supplier has kindly donated some wines for you all to sample and some tasting notes etc, including a well-known one world non-alcoholic fizz . Which we were the 1st to supply in UK for our oversea's visitors ^

A BBQ will be on hand, no set charge, other than we ask if you can donate £5 or as you feel to our in-house charity - Support GSTT. They do some amazing work, such as the Evelina Zip with London Fire Brigade which raised over £1.2 million for Evelina London Children's Hospital

The 2 hospitals we looks after - St Thomas' at Westminster and Guy's at London Bridge have both suffered in recent weeks with all the terrible events that went on. We look forward to hosting you, and to bring some normality back to the hospital and to celebrate and have fun.

Any questions, feel free to ask, and if you have any requests

Make sure you sign on on the night, as we have some gifts to give away.

Yeah, right! Closest you will get is the frozen variety when put in a cocktail.

It is a nice venue and we are lucky to get it every summer. Definitely worth going to.

Sorry I can't make it this year. Am having a much quieter "do" somewhere else, hopefully no flight missed this time

Ended up at Tommies tonight for less fun reasons (is our local hospital). Did pop into the do for a quick glass of wine but skulked in the background before leaving.

BBQ and organisation looked excellent, hope to be able to join a do again in future under better circumstances and actually manage to meet and talk to some of you!

Hope everyone had fun.

Had a great time, brilliant venue and lovely to meet old and new faces again! Been a while since I've been to a DO and had a very good time.

Thank you ever so much to all those involved in organising this and those that worked there for your efforts and for creating a great atmosphere. ^^^

I just got home but left NoTiersForMe and Calchas in charge. I am hoping they will negate each other and / or will somehow between them be more than the sum of them.

There's very little gossip when you are not there.
