The
Mayor of Peterborough, Councillor Paula Thacker MBE, is
inviting local people to attend the annual Mayor's Charity Ball at
the Marriott Hotel, Lynchwood, Peterborough, on Saturday 10 March
2012.
The evening will be a black-tie affair with a
silver and black theme. It will begin with a cocktail drinks
reception at 6.15pm, followed by a four-course meal which will be
served from 7.30pm. There will be live entertainment and guests
will have the opportunity to bid for special lots in
an auction and win prizes in a raffle. A photographer will
also be attending the event from 6pm allowing people to take away a
memento from the evening.
Proceeds from the event will go to the Mayor's
charities, which are Royal British Legion Women's Section and
Kidney Research UK 'Find a Cure for Alex'. Tickets cost £45 per
person.
Councillor Thacker said: "The ball is always a
fantastic night out that gives people the opportunity to put on
their finery, feel special and enjoy a memorable evening. Members
of the public have traditionally supported the ball and I am
looking forward to meeting local people and business leaders who
have got behind the event, which is designed to raise money for the
Mayor's charities."
Tickets can be purchased by calling the
Mayor's office on (01733) 452319 or by emailing mayor@peterborough.gov.uk.
Ends.
