Thank you to everyone who came to our dance show in The Chapel, Paul Street Community Centre.
We had a wonderful time and raised £478.65 to be split between the Alzheimer's Society and The British Heart Foundation, two charities which mean a lot to many of our dancers.
Huge thanks to all involved both on and off stage, to Tescos for donating the mince pies served in the interval and to St Aldhelm's Church for letting us borrow their pew cushions.
Thank you to our super cast and all the dancers. To the tech crew, cafe ladies, chaperones, hair, makeup and costume makers. Two brilliant nights spent with a lovely bunch of people!
