<\/a>The Belfast Masquerade Ball on October 17 is the perfect excuse to dig the glad rags out of the wardrobe and up the intrigue with a bespoke mask to match.<\/p>\nThe event costs just \u00a360 per person for a full night of entertainment which includes a champagne reception, a four course meal, music from local musicians and dancing into the wee small hours.<\/p>\n
The event is being organised by Cancer Fund for Children supporter and volunteer Sinead Campbell who is also running the Boston Marathon for the charity. Sinead (35) who lives in Belfast spent some of her early years in America and so has personal reasons for running the race. It is the novice runner\u2019s first marathon.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cI only started training in March and it is tough going but all for a great cause. The ball will help me fundraise for it. \u00a0I am hoping the event will be a magical night a once in a lifetime experience in a magnificent setting.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have volunteered at residentials for the charity and have seen the amazing work it carries out and how it helps the whole family. Funds raised will help local families during the most difficult of times.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cancer Fund for Children\u2019s Events Fundraiser, Amanda Steele said: \u201cWe are delighted that Sinead is holding this masquerade ball in aid of Cancer Fund for Children. It promises to be a unique and memorable night. Funds raised through this and via Sinead doing the Boston marathon will enable the charity\u2019s experienced team of Specialists to continue providing practical and emotional support, helping families cope with the devastating impact cancer has on their lives.\u201d
\nThe Ball is one of many special events Cancer Fund for Children is promoting during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month in September. Keep an eye out for our Bog Run, Zipline the Lagan and Gimme 5 campaign on Q radio.<\/p>\n
