Partner Event: Charity Event in Aid of Pancreatic Cancer at York Medical Society

This summer, the glorious Georgians are taking over the city of York! York is hosting its first Georgian Festival. York Medical Society is taking the opportunity, in collaboration with The Three Bears Foundation,  to welcome visitors to come and have a look around the Society's rooms and garden.  Tea/coffee and cake will be offered for a nominal fee to our visitors.  There will also be a tombola.  Building tours will take place on Saturday and there will be a guided walk on Sunday.

All proceeds from the event will go to The Three Bears Foundation - a York charity whose funds go to further medical research and support the families that have been affected by pancreatic cancer.
