Summary

The heartwarming and hilarious new novel from the best-selling author of The Single Ladies of Jacaranda Retirement Village.

Three unlikely friends. A lot of scones. And one chance to save the community....

The Marjorie Marshall Memorial Cafeteria is at the heart of St Jude's Hospital. Staffed by successive generations of dedicated volunteers, for over 50 years, the beloved cafeteria has been serving up a kind word and sympathetic ear along with tea and scones.

Hilary, the stalwart manageress, has worked her way up through the ranks, Jo, the latest recruit, is driving Hilary mad by arriving late every day and 17-year-old Chloe, the daughter of two successful surgeons, is volunteering in the holidays and bemused by the older women.

But when they discover the cafeteria is under threat of closure, the unlikely trio must put aside their differences. As they realise the secrets and sorrows they have in common, the women grow closer - but can they bring the community together and save the day?

Full of wisdom and warmth, The Tea Ladies of St Jude's Hospital is a gorgeously poignant, hilarious story about unlikely friendships, growing old disgracefully and coming together to save the things we love....

Such a lovely story

another great book from Joanna Nell. I love Julie's narration of it too, she helps to recreate the characters.
Endearing characters, sweet story with such a great ending. its amazing how good storytellers can have not much extravagant happen and yet make us hooked. Onto the next Joanna Nell story!
