Glitzy evening in City of London is next big fundraiser for Noah’s Ark Hospice organised by award-winning events manager

Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospice, which provides palliative care for over 350 children from its base in Byng Road, Barnet, depends on a continuous programme of fund raising together with community financial support from across north London and parts of south Hertfordshire.

The next event is a Glitz and Giving evening to be held in the heart of the City of London on Saturday 20 September.

Running costs at the hospice of £20,000 a day could not be met without the contributions made through sponsorship, major fund-raising events and donations.

Local financial support, which is another vital income stream, topped £320,000 in the last financial year with contributions from events and donations from across the London boroughs of Barnet, Enfield, Camden, Haringey, and Islington and Hertsmere.

Rachael Messer, who became special events manager for Noah’s Ark in October 2023 has just won national recognition for all her efforts in organizing events which have raised £1.1 million since her appointment.

She was given an honourable mention and singled out for special recognition at the annual Emmas Award which celebrate creativity, innovation and impact in helping to finance charities and their work.

The Glitz and Giving event, sponsored by V Jewellers of Cockfosters, is to be held at The Otherist, a cocktail bar and restaurant in Broad Street, on Saturday 20 September from 7 to 11pm.

Tickets cost £80 for what Noah’s Ark says will be an unforgettable evening of “elegance and excitement plus food and bubbles” and a raffle for a dazzling one-carat diamond.

Special guest will be the radio DJ and tv presenter Melvin Odoom.
