The Fire Industry Charity Ball was held at The Oxfordshire Golf Club and Spa on the evening of Friday 29th September 2017.
The event was held in partnership with the Fire Protection Association (FPA) and the Fire Industry Association (FIA) and Hosted by Ian Moore (CEO FIA).
The venue was perfectly positioned in the rolling hills of the Chilterns. It has been home to prestigious events on the European Tour. A change from our normal evening at the
Portman Hotel in London.
The evening was perfect to meet old friends with some great food drink and entertainment.
An Auction was made for a genuine Beatles picture that was taken at a quickly gathered photo shoot by photographer Tom Hanley (Father of Liveryman Tony Hanley). The auction was very competitive and the last two guests to go head to head were Roy Woolford and David Murfitt who together raised £580 for the Charitable Trust.
TringPark School for the
Performing Arts provides an environment which allows for a fusion of natural talent and creativity combined with fine teaching and training.
All this performing, training and learning requires a great deal of dedication and commitment from both staff and pupils and this creates a stimulating environment within a supportive community.
The Singers went through a number of memorable songs from Broadway and their professionalism was very apparent.
Johnny & The Zephyrs were the band for the evening and have been entertaining people with chunky Rock n Roll from artists such as Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, and many more for over 30 years. This evening was no exception.
