FOOTBALL legends Steve Perryman and Pat Jennings were guests of honour at High Wycombe Round Tables 60th Charter Dinner, held at Adams Park last Friday.

More than 220 guests, including High Wycombe Round Table's French equivalents from St Quentin enjoyed a packed evening of entertainment.

And the event also raised a tidy £9,000 for two charity organisations in the area, Mr Perryman, former captain of Tottenham Hotspur, and Mr Jennings, a celebrated goalkeeper for Northern Ireland and Spurs in the 60s and 70s, gave an after dinner presentation to the crowd.

Table magicians kept guests amused and the evening ended with a charity auction Gifts were provided by local businesses, including Allparts Automotive, Your Print Solutions and many more, as well as Mercedes Benz Cars.

More than £9,000 was to go toward two charities - Thames Valley Chiltern Air Ambulance and WADSAD - Wycombe and District Sports Association for the Disabled.
