Charity Ball!

Hi Everyone,

I just thought I would let everyone know that every year in May I host a Charity Ball in aid of CLICSargent, (cancer and leukaemia in childhood) however after finding out about MPD Voice I have decided to split the profits from ticket sales and the auction between both ClicSargent and MPD Voice.

Closer to the time I will post a link up to where you can buy tickets from for the event. On average the event usually makes around £4000 in profit (hopefully more next year) which is given straight to the charities. This year the event will be held in Manchester, which I know might not be an ideal location for everyone but it would be great for members of MPDvoice to attend and spread the word!

More details to follow, however feel free to contact me before then :)
