The Ashington Veterans and Elders Institute reported on it's Facebook page; "Absolutely cracking night tonight at the institute. The fabulous Alfie Dobson sings put on another stomping show for us...that's the third time we've had him here and it won't be the last - brilliant! This was a free night for our amazing supporters, put on thanks to a donation from Asda Ashington... 60 plus active invited supporters of the institute had a night on us...free bingo, free quiz, free raffle, free tea and coffee and free pies and peas...as a token of our appreciation for their amazing connections with us. We even had the Civic Head of Ashington Town Council, Victor Bridges and his wife join us. Thanks to Glenton's Bakery for another batch of perfect food, thanks to everyone who set up, served, cleared away, sang along, called the bingo and organised another super quiz...."
