What an accomplishment – the charity throwing their 55th annual ball and raising a whopping £59,000 to support young people across Sussex. Everyone involved should be extremely proud.
Credit goes to the sponsors of the event: DMH Stallard LLP, FRP Advisory, Cardens Accountants and Business Advisors, Creative Pod, The Grand Hotel Brighton and Rubix VT Ltd.
It was good to catch up with our friends at Nicholas James and to see Nick Muston auction off some great prizes!
