52 Red Hatters from 4 chapters & 10 Chelsea Pensioners met on Brighton Pier for a day out in Brighton.

We had lunch at The Royal Albion Hotel and then went for a walk on Brighton Pier. It was very windy but nice and sunny.

A Red Hatter from Australia was visiting her friend Carol, Queen of the Top Totties from Essex, and was delighted to be part of this happy alliance.

Every year the Brighton Belles sponsor the Chelsea Pensioners for a day out in Brighton. In the past we have been to Brighton Races on Ladies Day. We are usually joined by other chapters so it makes more interesting for the pensioners to meet new Red Hatters from around the country.

Queen Helen would like to thank all the ladies for the beautiful bouquet that was presented to her.

I just love Red Hatting. Thank you once again, Queen Helen
