Party outfits at the ready for Pennine Mencap's inaugural Celebration Ball

Oldham-based Pennine Mencap, a leading charity dedicated to supporting individuals with learning disabilities and their families, is preparing to stage its inaugural Celebration Ball on November 17, 2023.

The event, starting at 7pm, promises an evening of sophistication, fun, and fundraising, all in the exquisite setting of Chadderton Town Hall.

Pennine Mencap is a charitable organisation committed to improving the lives of individuals with learning disabilities and autism.

The organization provides a range of services and support to create a more inclusive and empowered local community.

The Pennine Mencap Celebration Ball is set to be a momentous occasion that brings together supporters, advocates, and the community for a night of festivity and philanthropy.

The event will be a black-tie affair, where attendees can enjoy a memorable evening in their finest attire.

There is already confirmed attendance from the Mayor of Tameside, as well as numerous, supportive local businesses.

The evening will include an exciting high-profile auction featuring a wide array of unique and exclusive items, offering guests the opportunity to bid on high-ticket items while contributing to a great cause.

All proceeds from the auction will support Pennine Mencap's mission of enhancing the lives of local people with learning disabilities.

Some of the items up for auction include:

2 x Royal Exchange Tickets to a show of your choice

Stand-up comedy tickets

A night at the 5-star York Hotel and Spa for 2

In addition to the auction, attendees will be treated to a three-course meal housed in the stunning Chadderton Town Hall, a mere two miles from Pennine Mencap’s Oldham HQ.

This fine dining experience will be a testament to the high standards of the event and provide a perfect backdrop for an evening of celebration.

The night will be further enhanced by a captivating live music performance from Pennine Mencap's very own Rhodes Bank Choir.

RBC is made up of Pennine Mencap service users and will be treating the town hall to a selection of songs learned through weeks of rehearsal.

Elliot Sparks, Pennine Mencap Trustee and Chairman, said: "We are thrilled to host our inaugural Celebration Ball.

"This is not only going to be an evening to remember, but the ball will serve as an opportunity for local businesses and people to come together and make a difference in the lives of those we support.
