The midwifery staff are planning this wonderful night out to raise money for Kiwoko Hospital in Uganda.

For the first hour you can ‘shop till you drop’ at the craft market with over 20 stalls at the venue, followed by a range of clothes supplied by L K Bennett (Banbridge Outlet), Julie Elliott (Hillsborough), Mothercare (Lisburn), and Anne Louise Designs (personal designer of ladieswear, especially wedding and evening attire).

Accessorising these fashions will be a collection of bespoke jewellery made by Melanie Bond Jewellery.

A light supper will be served by midwifery staff and a generous prize draw, with donated prizes from local companies, will finish the evening.

Money raised will go to Kiwoko Hospital in Uganda, which was started by a Co Down GP in 1987.

Tickets are available at participating shops and at Lagan Valley Maternity reception.
