Shall We Dance? For Christie's
Fundraising for THE CHRISTIE CHARITY
Story
Anyone who knows me, knows I love to dance - and I certainly have enough dancing shoes.
Well now I'm channelling all my moves into one event and raising money for Christie's and The Willow Foundation.
I'm taking part in Shall We Dance? A Strictly Come Dancing style event. My partner Nigel and I have to learn a Waltz and a Cha Cha to perform in front of hundreds of people at a black tie event at The Holiday Inn in Bolton.
Have a look at me in my first video blog and taking part in a photoshoot - yes really! www.theboltonnews.co.uk/video
There are five couples involved (the sixth to be finalised), a local councillor, a doctor from Christie's, a girl from Bolton Arena, a Bolton News reader and me. We will be judged and some of us will be booted off - no pressure then.
I have two sites - the other being www.justgiving.com/dancingjenny2 - as we are raising money for the two charities.
Send this out to all your friends too . . . every penny really counts.
Give as much or as little as you can and let me know if you fancy seeing me strut my stuff (either that or falling over my ball gown). It's going to be a fun evening so get your glad rags on and join me.
The event
When: Friday, June 12, 2009
Where: Holiday Inn, Cloisters Suite, Bolton.
Tickets: £17.50 (Includes drink on arrival. They are selling out fast so if you want to attend then I can reserve ticket)
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Willow Foundation gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please sponsor me now!
