Butterfly Ball 2018

After the success of recent Balls we are pleased to have, once again, booked our 2018 Butterfly Ball at the Branston Hall Hotel in Branston, Lincolnshire on Saturday 22nd September.  This venue is a fine country house hotel set in 88 acres of stunning Parkland and Lakes, situtated just 3 miles South of Lincoln.

All the money raised during the evening will go directly towards supporting families affected by Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1.

 

 

• Welcome drink of Summer Punch
• 3 course meal with coffee 
• Wine provided with your main course
• An acoustic set throughout the duration of the meal, provided once again by James McClean
• Charity raffle
• Live Auction, hosted by Radio Presenter and ex Big Brother Housemate, Luke Marsden

Doors open 5.45pm for a 6.30pm sit down.  We start the evening with the first half of our auction, and your meal will be served around 7.15pm.

 

Our raffle will be held around 11.30pm and the extended bar will remain open until 1am, with the event coming to a close at 1.30am.
