A fundraising event with local author AJ Warren will be taking place Thursday, November 16 in Didcot to raise money for this year’s Children in Need appeal.

The event is being held upstairs at Berro Lounge from 7pm and features talks with the author, a raffle with a host of prizes, refreshments and book sales.

AJ Warren (also known as Andrea) has also promised to match the total made from book sales to boost the total to be donated Children in Need.

Andrea said: “Children in Need focus on the importance of maintaining positive relationships for children and young people. We will be putting on free prosecco and soft drinks, nibbles and raffling several winter hampers. Hopefully we’ll raise quite a bit of money! Everyone is welcome to come along.”
