Coventry and Warwickshire’s business community was invited to have a ball at an event that raised over £9,000 for charity.

More than 200 people attended a glittering charity ball staged by Coventry-based law firm Band Hatton Button at the Coventry Hilton Hotel in Walsgrave.

The event was organised in support of the Heart of England Community Foundation, a charity which gives grants to support community projects across Coventry, Warwickshire and Solihull.

Guests were treated to pre-dinner drinks along with a three-course meal, and a variety of raffle and competition prizes were also awarded.

Entertainment included a surprise performance by Freddie the Band who posed as catering staff before taking to the stage.​
