BRIDPORT POLICE CHARITY BALL
Tickets are still on sale for you to attend the Police Charity Ball and I’d like to invite Bridport community to participate in the event, which will be held on Saturday November 24th at Freshwater Holiday Park from 730pm.
Last year over 180 people danced the night away to fabulous music from local band The Sidekicks, in a venue transformed by a local video projections artist and illuminated flags to create a real party atmosphere. Over a £1000 was raised for local good causes, including children’s nurseries, youth projects, elderly and disabled drop in centres.
I’d personally like to thank all those who donated prizes for the auction and raffle and ask that any similar donations would gratefully received to raise money once again.
The ball is a great community event, and I’d like once again to thank everyone who came along last year and joined us again the fun and to come along again. Tickets are on sale at the tourist information office in Bridport and at Bridport Police station priced at £21. The band again will be the Sidekicks and more slapstick video projections are promised.
