The beautiful Caer Rhun Hall is set to host a memorable evening this summer as a Gala Ball for a local charity returns for the first time in five years.
Tŷ Gobaith children’s hospice nestled in the Conwy Valley, just a stone’s throw away from the Victorian Manor House, has teamed up with top fashion brand Sisters and Seekers to host the black-tie evening on Saturday September 20th.
Marking the return of the event to home soil, and also the 21st anniversary of the hospice, it was fitting that the charity joined forces with the North Wales-based designers.
Being hosted in the Hall’s brand-new permanent glass-fronted marquee, the evening will feature memorable entertainment, three courses of delicious locally-sourced food, table wine, live and silent auctions plus plenty of time for networking and dancing.
Event organisers, Vanessa Marubbi and Sian Golding, said: “For such a glamorous event, we are delighted to have the amazing Sisters and Seekers be our headline sponsor. They really are the perfect fit.
“Tŷ Gobaith is North Wales’ only children’s hospice and aims to reach every child and family living with a life-threatening condition and support them with the respite, nursing care and play therapy they need to live their best life.
“By choosing to come to our Ball with your colleagues or friends, you will be directly supporting hundreds of local children and families to make the most out of their time together.”
Joining Sisters and Seekers as supporting sponsors of the event are other local firms Celtic Financial Planning, Swayne Johnson Solicitors and LL Estates.
Alice and Maisie Jones, Directors of Sisters and Seekers, commented: “We are passionate about contributing and working with people that make a real difference and Hope House is the perfect example of this.
“We feel very privileged to support a charity that revolves around kindness and compassion for such brave children and truly honoured to know our donation will be transformed into something meaningful.
“We hope our contribution helps in even a small way, to ensure that each child’s day is filled with a little more joy and light during a time that may feel scary and dark, and towards the incredible team that are dedicated to making this happen.”
Someone who has previous knowledge of the hospice is Rob Lewis, Director of Celtic Planning: “At Celtic Financial Planning, we’re proud to be known for our strong community values and social responsibility.
“After fundraising for Hope House at our own 2024 Charity Ball, we witnessed first-hand the vital support they provide to so many local families. It was a natural choice to continue our support by sponsoring their ball this year — and we’re honoured to play a small part in the incredible work they do.”
Louise Young, Managing Director of LL Estates is equally proud of their involvement and said: “I’m really proud to support Tŷ Gobaith, the care and support they give to local children and families is incredible, and it means a lot to be able to help in any way we can.”
Lisa Harbour, Head of Family at Swayne Johnson Solicitors, said: “Supporting Hope House Tŷ Gobaith is incredibly important for us.
“They are very close to the hearts of people in the local communities that we love, and many of our employees are parents themselves.
“Swayne Johnson want to support Hope House Tŷ Gobaith so that they can continue to provide their vital and invaluable services for many years to come”
