Latimer Hinks have a ball raising money for charity
Latimer Hinks law firm is hoping to raise thousands of pounds for a number of good causes including its main charity for 2010, ‘Help For Heroes’.
‘Help For Heroes’ supports wounded servicemen and women returning from Afghanistan and Iraq. Its current focus is to create a series of Regional Recovery Houses, which will be built across the UK and serve as the last stage rehabilitation before a serviceman, or woman, returns to their unit or moves back into civilian life.
Latimer Hinks will also donate money to St Teresa’s Hospice in Darlington, as well several smaller local charities.
St Teresa’s provides high quality medical, nursing and social support to patients and offers respite and support for carers.
Clients, professional contacts and friends of Latimer Hinks have been invited to attend the Black Tie May Ball to be held on May 21st at Wynyard Hall. A four course meal will be provided followed by a charity auction, tombola, raffle, dancing, with music from the party band Huge, which has a repertoire ranging from disco to reggae, rock to soul to jazz.
A number of prizes have already been donated including champagne, jewellery, spa day membership and several rounds of golf.
HSBC has also kindly pledged to match £1 for £1 up to £1,500.
Anne Elliott, Partner at Latimer Hinks said: “We are thrilled by the support we have received for our Charity Ball – we are more or less “sold out”, which is fantastic news.
