In addition, we were fortunate to have several sponsors who supported the event by sponsoring bottles of champagne. Our sincere thanks go to Rachel Abbott (Cobra Sport), Richard Jewitt (Footprint Tools), Lisa Pogson (Airmaster), Michael Parden (B. Braun), Victoria Clarke-Brown (Kitlocker), Stephen Hall (Advanced Alloys), and Sammy Gaunt for their generous contributions.
The Cutlers’ Hall Hospitality team put in tremendous effort in preparation for the event and service of the food, incorporating historical elements from the Company’s founding in 1624—a touch we deeply appreciate. It was a pleasure to collaborate with the team to bring this unique concept to life, offering a fresh experience beyond our usual approach. Our heartfelt thanks go to the Head Chef, his team, the service team, and everyone involved in the meticulous planning.
Your support made the Hallamshire Ball a resounding success, and we are incredibly grateful for the community spirit that was evident throughout the evening. Thank you once again to everyone who participated and contributed – your involvement is what made the night truly special!
