The Ride High Golden Ticket Ball took place on Saturday 25th January at Jurys Inn Milton Keynes. Guests lucky enough to get their hands on a golden ticket walked through the giant Wonka gates and over a grass bridge into the most spectacular and colourful Ballroom we’ve ever seen – with giant lollipops and sweets to remind us all of our own childhoods.
With musical performances from the wonderful Lisa Saunders and the Ride High children, a heart-warming speech from ex Ride High member Harlee combined with auctions, raffles, live band, chocolate fountain, Virtual Reality and grab a grand games guests had a fantastic evening and also had the opportunity to learn more about the charity and the importance of our work in the community.
The Ride High children also had a wonderful time and are a true inspiration to us all; they did both the charity and themselves very proud. Some of these children barely said a word when they first came to Ride High – at the Ball they courageously stood up in front of 300 people. What a remarkable achievement!
The Golden Ticket Ball was our most successful event yet and raised a super £101k. Every penny of the funds raised will be used to support the most disadvantaged children in Milton Keynes.
Thank you all our guests, donors and volunteers for supporting our event – it couldn’t have happened without them. Special thanks to our sponsors Sysmex UK, Imagine Presentations and to our designer Collingwood Design.
