A remarkable milestone was celebrated as the Ewell Village Residents Association (EVRA) commemorated its 90th birthday.

A tea party was hosted for the guests by local café All Things Nice last Saturday (July 15), with 16 special guests who were all celebrating being over 90.

Chairman of Ewell Village Residents’ Association, Brian Angus, told Epsom Guardian: “The success of the whole day in general, and the tea in particular, exceeded everyone’s expectations.”

He added that thousands of people attended the event, called ‘Bigger-Than-Ever’.

Mr Angus told the guests: “Please put July 15 2027 in your diary!”

He also praised organisers of the event, Ewell Village Traders Residents Association.

“Chair of Ewell Village Traders Residents Association Tracy Dale must be credited with the careful co-ordination that ensured five separate events in Ewell worked together to give everyone a fantastic day out,” Mr Angus said.

Local café All Things Nice commented on the event: “We had the most fantastic Ewell Village Fair day. So lovely to see everyone & such a fabulous atmosphere. The highlight was our afternoon tea for our elderly community in support of EVRA's 90th birthday celebrations.”
