I have organised a charity ball to raise money for two amazing charities that are both very close to my heart. The first one is Sands, a charity that helps support anyone affected by pregnancy loss or the death of a baby. They also carry out vital work to help save babies lives. The second one is Andy’s Man Club, a men’s suicide prevention charity, offering free-to-attend peer-to-peer support groups across the United Kingdom and online. They want to end the stigma surrounding men’s mental health and help men through the power of conversation.

I have chosen these charities as unfortunately I have been affected by baby loss and my husband and brother have both struggled with their mental health. I want to create more awareness for both these charities to make people more aware and more open to talk about these subjects.

My charity ball is going to be on Saturday 25th February at Healing Manor. We have entertainment plus a raffle and a silent auction.

Anything at all that you can donate to these charities would be greatly appreciated. We also still have a limited number of tickets available if you'd like to join us and attend the ball.

Thank you so much x
