Are you joining us tomorrow? We're celebrating our amazing volunteers with a big party in our @byrontheatre.
The day will kick off with a HUGE clothes-swap in the morning from 10:00am - 12:00pm.
👗👚 Pick out any 7 items that you don’t want anymore. Make sure they are in good condition. We are limiting donations to 7 pieces each. Good condition clothes can be brought into the office the week before the event. Any items remaining after the event will be donated to Vinnies immediately.

🥘🍲Liberation Larder will provide a delicious and nutritious lunch for us for a small donation of $3

🎥🎞️ From 1:30 - 3:15pm we will be screening the film ‘Nine to Five” with Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda and Dolly Parton in the Byron Theatre. This is an iconic comedy that deals with the influence of the women's liberation movement of the 70s in the office workplace in Los Angeles in 1980. We thought it would be fun to dress up as one of the characters or come in your best 8o’s office wear. (Does anyone still have a suit with shoulder pads?) There will be a prize for the best fancy dress.

🍹🍷From 3:15 - 4:00pm our Theatre bar will be open with discounted drinks.

See you at the party 🎊 ... See MoreSee Less
