The Africa Ball

Following a highly successful inaugural Ball in January of this year, Mercy Ships is set to hold its next Ball on 16th January 2010.

The Ball will have an African theme and will celebrate our work in Benin in 2009, as well as the charity’s return to Togo in February, where the previous ship has been a number of times.

Taking place at the Landmark Hotel, renowned as one of the finest Grande Dames amongst London’s foremost hotels, individual and corporate supporters can expect a cocktail reception, delicious 3-course dinner, fabulous wines and great entertainment.

During the evening guests will also have an opportunity to bid for superb prizes in the Live and Silent Auctions as well as participate in the Grand Draw. With live music to dance the night away provided by renowned live band Zodiac, people can be assured of a stylish and highly entertaining night out.

The evening also has an important purpose. Since 1978 Mercy Ships has been delivering specialised health care and community development services in some of the world’s poorest countries. In that time it has served in more than 150 ports, bringing lasting change to millions of lives.

Tickets for the Ball cost £150 per ticket and £1500 for a table, and it’s hoped that companies and individual supporters will come together to mark this special occasion and raise precious funds for Mercy Ships life-changing work in Africa.
