One of our supporters, Jo Austin is holding a jazz themed ball in aid of Candlelighters on the 23rd September.

The evening will be jazz themed with a bit of burlesque thrown in and the ball will also be going gold to support Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.

It will be held at the Regent Centre, York and take place between 7:30pm and 1am. There will be live entertainment and a luxury buffet available and of course a raffle!

The dress code is whatever you feel comfortable in. If you wish to dress in the roaring 20’s / art deco / jazzy era then feel free to do so, and if you don’t want to then come along in what you like.

Jo said, “the main aim of this event is that everyone has a fantastic time and we raise lots of well deserved pennies for this amazing charity, one you all know is very close to my heart”.

Tickets are £25 each. Please contact [email protected] or visit the event on Facebook ‘Candlelighters & all that jazz’ to get yours.
