On Saturday 28th March 2026 Connect Links Networking hosted it’s first charity ball in aid of Cancer Research UK (CRUK) at Lea Marston Hotel — what an absolutely amazing evening!
A huge thank you to all of the businesses & individuals who supported the event by purchasing tickets, donating raffle prizes, sponsoring tables and arrival drinks, buying raffle tickets, and bidding so generously in the auction. Thank you in particular to Paul Barnes from Cloud Accounting Support Services Ltd for being a headline sponsor for the event & donating several prizes for the raffle.
Everybody’s support truly made the night unforgettable.
Special thanks to our fantastic entertainment team — DJ Garry for keeping the dancefloor alive, and Imosha Events & Videography for their brilliant 360 video and Magic Mirror, both of which were a massive hit! Also, thank you to Helium Heaven for the stunning balloons and beautiful entrance display.
I’d also like to personally thank Cheryl Barnacle and Alison Barnes for helping me (Donna Reed) organise the event — I genuinely couldn’t have done it without you both.
Together, we raised an incredible £5,727.12 for Cancer Research UK! This will go a long way in supporting Cheryl, our dedicated local CRUK volunteer, on her inspiring journey towards raising £1 million.
We hope to confirm a date for 2027’s Charity Ball very soon!
We currently run 1 monthly meeting at Unique Indoor Golf & another monthly meeting at Blue Lion, Witherley. If you’d like any further information, please send me a message.


Get to know some of the brilliant businesses and people who make up Connect Links Networking.

Since losing my husband to cancer in 2007 I have been raising funds for Cancer Research UK and have pledged to raise £1 million. I do this by making & selling knitted items & branded merchandise & supporting local fundraisers. Being part of CLN has created more support than I ever imagined possible and I cannot thank them enough for all their support.
