Wates and M&S Event a Success!
18 November, 2010
On 4th Novemeber, M&S in partnership with Wates, hosted a gala dinner in aid of Breast Cancer Awareness. The event was held beneath the wings of Concorde at Manchester Airport’s Concorde Conference centre, with all proceeds going directly to Breakthrough.
As well as the gala dinner, a host of other activities took place during the evening to keep guests entertained. These included hidden golden tickets, a raffle, two auctions and even a caricaturist! A wide range of great items were donated for both the auctions and the raffle, including signed sports shirts, concert tickets, backstage passes and an iPad!
Paul Danks, Business Development Manager at Wates said ‘I had a great evening and am really pleased we had a number of our consultant partners at the event, it made it thoroughly enjoyable’
The event was a resounding success and a wonderful evening was had by all that attended. A grand total of £18,000 was raised by the event with the evening marking the end of M&S’s fundraising activities during October, Breast Cancer Awareness month, where they raised a total of £90,000.
