Sparkling Charity Dinner Dance

The Grand Dinner Dance, held in aid of charity, was a glittering affair from start to finish.
The dance for the Lee Sharpe Foundation took place at Mere Golf & Country Club in Knutsford and saw a procession of celebrities turn out, raising £25,000 for Ambassadors in Sport (AIS), which helps disadvantaged children in the UK and South Africa, Christies Cancer Hospital and Juvenile Diabetes.

Chester label ChloBo donated thousands of pounds worth of jewellery to help raise money for the event. Chloe Moss, the jewellery designer behind ChloBo, contributed the jewellery for the charity auction after discovering the amazing work ex-Manchester United winger, Lee Sharpe does through his Foundation.

Chloe says, “It was great to be able to contribute to Lee’s Grand Charity Dinner Dance and it was an amazing night. He is really passionate about helping under-privileged children through sport and his enthusiasm is infectious.”
