Thank you to everyone who came to the fundraising evening on Saturday 15th February.
We raised a huge £768.76 for Young Lives vs Cancer.

I think we can all agree that is was an extremely successful evening, and a lot of fun was had by all.
Well done Lenny for raising awareness of such a fantastic charity, and for all your hard work arranging such an important evening. Thanks too to The Decades for entertaining everyone and getting so many people dancing!
If you would still like to donate to this wonderful charity, please go to their website www.younglivesvscancer.org.uk
