Over 140 guests from the business, community and voluntary sector representatives attended the evening in aid of the Mayor’s chosen charities for the year – Chest Heart & Stroke and Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice, with over £5000 raised.
The Mayor commented: “It was wonderful to see so many people come together for two worthy charities. I am truly grateful to everyone who attended, donated, and helped make the evening such a success.
“The evening was not only about raising much-needed funds. We also wanted to show our appreciation for the dedication of the staff, volunteers and supporters who make this charitable work possible. The generosity shown by our residents and businesses reflect the powerful sense of community we have here in Mid and East Antrim.
“Thank you to everyone who came and helped make a difference to my two fantastic Mayoral charities.”
