Liz said: “As well as a fantastic homemade spread of Wonderland-worthy afternoon tea treats that would make the March Hare jump for joy, the party will include a charity prize draw, an auction, close-up magic, and a contemporary twist on flamingo croquet, as well as a charity roulette table manned by some of Wonderland’s best-loved residents.”
