We had so many enquiries about Let it Snow we had to find a bigger venue!! So this years Christmas Fundraising Concert took place at the Regent Hall in Oxford Street. Over 150 young people from 16 projects took part and an audience of 500 enjoyed a selection of the work undertaken during the year.
This year we organised a Sealed Bid Auction as the principal fundraiser. Auction lots included tickets to Kylie Minogue, Mary Poppins and Shayne Ward plus hotel rooms at top four and five star hotels in the West End. For those into the latest fashions, the auction included customised jeans by Helena Bonham-Carter. Altogether the auction raised over £3,000 with highest bid of just over £1,500 for the Kylie Minogue ickets plus a night at the world famous 5 star London Hotel, Langham's.
We would like to thank all the young people who took part, all the artistic staff, chaperones and volunteers who helped make it happen.
