Hi Guys
sorry for the short notice only just been informed I am alble to post this.

Charity Ball
24th September 2010
The Earl of Doncaster Hotel
7:30pm
Ticket are £25.00 and include disco, hot and cold buffet and raffle.

Closing Date for tickets is 14th August, so inbox me asap if you require further info or would like to purchase some.

I am sure i dont need to stress what a good cause this is, but my personal reason for organising this event is to try and raise more awareness of arthritis in children, because up until my daughter being diagnosed at 22months i had no idea it even effected children.

Donations and raffle prizes are also needed if you are unable to attend but would still like to support the event.

I would like to also thank all of you guys and this site for the ongoing support.

{Moderator comment: This ball's proceeds will be split 50:50 between Athritis Care and Arthritis Research UK}

    It is a shame, I cannot make it as it is too far away. I'm in London

    I do hope that you all enjoy yourselves though.

    Steph. I really do hope it goes well for you. Too far for me and especially as I shall have a house ful ready to celebrate my hubbies 70th birthday.

    After this, I have my own event, Art show, 10% going to Arthritis Care.

    I hope, between us, we can make everyone aware of the many kinds of arthritis that can afflict both young, middle and old age alike.
    And also the wonderful support you can get from the AC team.

    Joy
