TVF Big Night In raises over £18,000!
Published: 18 December 2020
We are delighted that TVF's Big Night In on 11th December raised over £18,000 which will help to transform many more lives by funding therapy for carers and the cared for through the work of Crossroads Care Richmond & Kingston, an accessible minibus for TAG Youth Club for disabled youngsters, and financial grants for medical students to help cover the cost of textbooks and travel to hospital placements supporting them on their way to becoming the NHS doctors of the future.
Guests enjoyed the Locktail Reception before the Main Event live on YouTube from 8pm with one of the highlights being Sir Trevor McDonald in conversation with TVF Ambassador Linda Duberley. Guests also enjoyed stunning performances by Soprano Bernadette Lord, amazing magic with Fergus Flanagan and a magical performance of 'This is me' by Strathmore School and Singing Hands.
Congratulations to all those who won such fabulous prizes in the Diamond Draw and online auction. A bottle of champagne is on the way to two lucky guests - Melissa and Gitali - who were the 'fanciest' dressed guests!
