Past Events
The Tracy Trust Coronation Lunch
Saturday 6th May 2023 will remain in the memories of all who celebrated the crowning of our new King: Charles III.
The Tracy Trust marked the momentous occasion by gathering in the Memorial Hall for a live screening of the event,
followed by a delicious lunch.
Despite the number of people present, you could have heard a pin drop during the transmission of the service from Westminster Abbey, such was the rapt attention of the participants, although they certainly increased the volume over lunch! King prawns, Coronation chicken and King Charles Coronation quiche were all on the menu; desserts were colour themed – yes, you guessed it: red, white and blue!
The photos below give a flavour of the enjoyment had by all who attended.

The Tracy Trust Platinum Jubilee Tea Party
Friday 3rd June 2022 saw one of the highlights in the Hedgerley calendar of Platinum Jubilee events: the Tracy Trust Tea Party. The Scout Hut was transformed into a patriotic pageant of red, white and blue, as over sixty Tracy Trust members and friends came together to mark her Majesty the Queen’s seventy years on the throne. Elizabeth II was toasted at the start of the proceedings and guests sung the National Anthem. Then they were treated to a delicious afternoon tea, courtesy of Ann Tennant. What excitement when the Platinum Jubilee Pudding itself was produced and all got to taste the prize-winning recipe; Ann told us that the zest and juice of twenty lemons went into its making.
Louise Goodridge provided tuneful entertainment both as a soloist singer and conductor of the Thursday morning Tracy Trust singing class, members of which sung a medley from the musicals. The communal singing proved to be very popular as songs from the decades in which the Queen has reigned were sung with gusto by all and resounded out in the heart of Hedgerley.
