We’re excited to invite all CARA members to a wonderful and very local venue for this year’s Spring Party event. No. 1 Royal Crescent, recently crowned the winning ‘Small Visitor Attraction’ 2025 by Visit England, is kindly allowing us to use the lower levels of this wonderful local attraction for our Spring Party. Please save the details in your diary…

We are very pleased to announce the following arrangement with Clayton’s Kitchen, one of our favourite restaurants within our CARA area:

On arrival you will take the stairs to the lower floor to an attractive private dining room organised for our exclusive use.
This private dining room will be decorated with a Christmas tree and other festive decorations. Upon arrival you will receive a complimentary glass of prosecco or a soft drink in the bar area before taking your seat at one of the 6 tables.

You are asked to choose your festive lunch in advance from a three course menu, with at least 5 options for each course. Vegetarian options are also available for each course.
The cost will be £39 per head ( please see attached the Claytons Menu for you to pre-select your 3 course lunch: 1 x starter, 1 x main course and 1 x dessert course ).
You can, of course, purchase your own table wine, additional soft drinks and pre and post dining tipples, for which you should pay individually.
In order to be reasonably spaced we have restricted numbers to 44. We think it fair that priority should be given to full Members of CARA (two people per membership) in order of payment received. If any spaces remain on Monday 15th November, we will then open invitations up to our Associate Membership.
Various local businesses have offered us gifts so that we can run a raffle, with the proceeds going to a charity of CARA’s choosing.

As Christmas is not far off, we need to commit to the 44 spaces very soon, and feel it is appropriate to ask for the full ticket amount now for members to secure their places at this event. Reservations can be confirmed with a cheque payable to CARA, or cash, £39 per person to Rosemarie Tunstall at 10 The Circus.
Of course, should government Covid restrictions, nearer the time of this event, impede our ability to hold this lunch then we would look to credit the pre-payments received for the event.

With kind regards,

Rosie Tunstall
Social Secretary
CARA.
