ILEX Summer Ball

The annual Bristol Bath and surrounds ILEX summer ball was held in The Mariott Hotel in Bristol on June the 9th 2006.

It was a great night out.

This years chosen Charity was:

CHILDRENS HOSPICE SOUTH WEST

Terminally-ill children are currently cared for by Childrens Hospice South West at Little Bridge House, Fremington, Devon. Two hundred youngsters and their families go there each year, many from Bristol, Bath and Somerset. There is a shortage of places and a new hospice is now planned for North Somerset. Plans have just been approved for a £15 Million hospice to be built at Charlton Farm, Wraxall. Jill Farwell, Executive Director of Childrens Hospice South West, said "This new site will offer our families the tranquility, privacy and home-from-home environment they desperately need". The charity now faces the daunting task of raising the necessary funds to get the hospice up and running.
