The Furnley House Foundation Summer Ball returns on May 6th and looks set to be an amazing night.

Held at Winstanley House, the evening aims to raise a significant amount for three local charities, with the 2023 ball raising over £42,000 for Leicestershire charities.

The annual ball was born out of Financial Adviser and Mortgage Brokers Furnley House’s ambition to create opportunities and improve and save lives in their local community.

The dedicated Furnley House Foundation holds two flagship events throughout the year, The Furnley House Foundation Summer Ball and The Leicestershire Community Champions Awards, along with other fundraising opportunities to help bring the community together and raise money.

This year, all funds raised will be dedicated to supporting three charities that were chosen during the 2023 Leicestershire Community Champions Awards: Charity of the Year winners, Steps Conductive Education Centre, and finalists Focus Charity and Heartwize. Steps Conductive Education Centre is a registered charity supporting families with children who have special educational needs. Focus Charity supports vulnerable young people, many of whom are in a mental health crisis. Heartwize delivers basic life support training including CPR using resuscitation dolls as well as how to use a defibrillator.

Simon Winfield (Chairman of the Furnley House Foundation and Managing Director of Red Monkey Play) expressed his enthusiasm, stating

“We would love to see as many people as possible at this year’s Summer Ball. Our hope is that thousands of pounds are raised, and we can make a real difference to the local community.”

“Previous Balls have been fantastic evenings and have received lots of support, helping us to achieve our mission of improving and saving lives in Leicester and Leicestershire.”

The evening is hosted by comedian Patrick Monahan and will feature an exquisite three course meal, live music, and the chance to bid on some incredible items, both in live and silent auctions. Last year, tickets sold out so be sure to get your tickets early.
