Spring Ball at The Hurlingham Club

The Sick Children's Trust was enormously lucky to be nominated as the first charity to receive support from the recently formed company "Charity Events Ltd". This committee, of five passionate and inspiring friends, has spent the last six months tapping into their personal and business contacts alike, to pulled together what was a stunningly successful ball at the exclusive Hurlingham Club in London.

The event was organised in honour of an eleven year old girl called Georgia, who has been fighting a brain tumour over the past year. During this time, her family have stayed at Acorn House, The Sick Children's Trust's "home from home" in Cambridge and the Spring Ball highlighted her bravery throughout this battle.

The event was hosted by radio and television presenter, Gabby Logan, and guests included her husband and Scottish international Rugby Union player, Kenny Logan, along with Strictly Come Dancing star, Karen Hardy, and, of course, Georgia herself.

With 300 guests and 28 auction prizes, the evening was a fundraising hit and brought in a staggering profit of £62,000 for The Sick Children's Trust!

We are hugely grateful for "Charity Events Ltd" for undertaking this enormous challenge and for creating a fun and memorial evening for everyone who attended. Thank you so much for your support!
