A party to mark the Queen's 80th birthday will take place at Caf Sez on Friday, April 21, from noon.

The event has been organised by caf owner Rachel Yates to co-incide with the Ledbury English Festival.

She said: "Each diner who eats from a special menu, that will include coronation chicken, will get a complimentary free glass of bubbly."

Today (Friday), Ledbury mayor Mary Cooper will be at Caf Sez to draw the winning tickets in a fundraising raffle.

Proceeds will go to Ann Dorsett, who will go to Africa this autumn to help build an orphanage for children who have lost parents to AIDS and malaria.
