Two sisters are hoping to lift everyone’s COVID gloom by organising a glittering charity ball in August.
Lauren Grylls, who lives in Devonport, and her sister Cheyenne from Tavistock, have always wanted to organise a special event for charity – and now they have taken the plunge and announced their plans.
The charity black tie masquerade ball is taking place on August 27 at the Guildhall in Plymouth – and a packed, fun-filled evening is promised.
The stay at home mums will be raising money for three charities – the Royal British Legion, Mind Devon and Jeremiah’s Journey.
Lauren said:
“My sister and I have always wanted to do something like this, so after the past couple of rough years for everyone with COVID, we thought it would be a perfect way for everyone to get dressed up for the night, feel beautiful, with nothing to worry about and have a dance too.
“It will be raising money for good causes and is a perfect way to give back to our community and raise money for these three amazing charities.”
The evening will feature a live band, buffet and a raffle with amazing prizes. Doors open at 7.30pm with the programme starting at 8pm and ending at midnight.
Lauren added:
“Dress code is a suit and tie and any type of evening dress – and of course all with a masquerade mask.”
She said that if the ball is a success they plan to do it again next year with different charities and a different theme.
Tickets for the event cost just £25 and can now be booked on Facebook by searching for Black Tie Masquerade Charity Ball.
