The dress code for the evening is black tie and ball gowns – please note this is a change from our last Gala Dinner, and requested by many! It would seem people love to get dressed up for an occasion like this. So we’re leaning into it and looking forward to witnessing all your glitz and glamour in its full splendour!

With ticket options for table group bookings and a special ‘buy one and gift one’ ticket to help those who might otherwise not be able to join us.

Please note – if you would like to join us for this event, but feel unable to commit to buying a ticket, we encourage you to contact [email protected] who can discuss options for being a recipient of the ‘buy one and gift one’ ticket scheme.
