Strictly Come Dancing stars quickstepping to Johnson Community Hospital summer ball

The star attraction at the annual Johnson Community Hospital ball this summer is Strictly Come Dancing stars Anton Du Beke and Erin Boag. 

The pair will hit the dance floor as special guests of The Strictly Johnson Glitter Ball at Springfields Events and Conference Centre in Spalding on Saturday, July 8.

The ball committee is offering sponsorship packages for the event, which is already on the way to being another sell-out smash.

Sally Brown, outpatients sister and chairman of the ball committee, said: “Every year we never fail to be amazed and overwhelmed by the support we receive locally for this event.

“We spend a considerable time planning to make sure each event is just as great as the last and this year is no exception, particularly given how excited we are to be able to welcome Anton and Erin.

“However, the event could not be possible without the support and generosity of our guests, sponsors and contributors to the grand prize draw. We would love to hear from anyone who could support us further to help raise as much money as possible to support our hospital, patients and staff.”

As well as a performance by Anton and Erin, guests can look forward to a three-course meal and entertainment by Mind The Gap.

The ball is the ninth annual fundraising event in aid of Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust’s Charitable Fund and Johnson Community Hospital’s League of Friends. 

It has previously raised approximately £35,000 for a range of services at the hospital, including equipment to support cataract surgery, special mattresses and cushions for Welland ward, educational equipment for diabetic patients and palliative care training courses for staff.

Anyone wanting more information on sponsorship opportunities or wishing to donate towards the grand prize draw, should contact Sally on 01775 652033 or email sally.brown@lincs-chs.nhs.uk.

Ball tickets cost £45 each and are available from the Johnson Community Hospital on 01775 652000.
