Caroline Grant, Chairwoman of the Committee said, “We are honoured to present a cheque for over £33,000 to the Southern Area Hospice from this year’s Gala Ball.

"This achievement would not have been possible without the continued support of our main sponsors, Ashtree Financial Services and Tinnelly Group.

"We extend our gratitude to Cunningham Contracts for sponsoring this year’s entertainment and a heartfelt thank you goes to everyone who kindly donated auction and raffle prizes, or supported the event in any way, and of course to all those who attended.

"Stay tuned for exciting new plans for next year’s event.”
