Scarborough's Rainbow centre is to stage it's first ever fundraising ball.

The centre offers a variety of essential services including: a foodbank, café, hot showers, laundry facilities, access to clothing, toiletries, and bedding, start-up packs for new homes, and a debt advice service.
Mike Lynskey from the centre says the fundraising ball is a new venture for the charity.
On Saturday 4 May 2024, The Rainbow Centre will be hosting an elegant evening at Scarborough Spa which it ways will be filled with "delectable cuisine and fabulous music - all while helping local people who are in need".
Guests can indulge in a delightful drinks reception, followed by a lavish three-course dinner. As the night unfolds, they will join in the excitement of a charity auction and raffle, where they could win incredible prizes generously donated by the local community.
Ball goers are encouraged to dress to impress in their finest black tie and evening attire as the ball will exude an atmosphere of sophistication and style. They will be dancing the night away to an incredible 9 piece band – The Mike Brown Big Band - as well as their lively DJ.
Mike says they are looking for local firms to get involved.
