Gallery – Having a ball at glamorous event

Over £4,000 was raised for local charities as a glamorous ball returned for an eighth year.

The Rotary Club of Spalding and Welland’s Two Lips Ball returned to Springfields last Saturday.

This year’s event raised thousands in aid of the St John’s Ambulance and local Rotary supported charities.

£2,000 was raised thanks to the raffle which had fantastic prizes including a signed England World Cup finalists rugby shirt that went for £330.

Other prizes included a visit to Buckingham Palace, England test match cricket tickets, a carvery for ten at Woodlands Hotel and lunch at The George of Stamford.

Rotary spokesman Peter Atkinson said: “It was a really good evening raising money for local charities.”
