Bondholders set to step out for charity dance extravaganza

A number of Marketing Derby Bondholders are set to take to the dancefloor for a charity dance event, which will raise cash for two worthy causes.

The Derbyshire Unstrictly Dancing Fundraiser is set to take place on Thursday 16 May at the University of Derby’s Kedleston Road campus.

It will see a line-up of Marketing Derby Bondholders bravely swapping boardrooms for the ballroom to raise vital funds for Umbrella Derby and Derbyshire and the Lewis Sewell Foundation Trust – the latter set up in loving memory of YMCA Derbyshire boss Gillian Sewell’s son, Lewis.

The evening promises dazzling dance performances, show-stopping live music, exclusive showcases, fine dining options, and plenty of surprises.

Theresa Peltier, Derbyshire Deputy Lieutenant, is spearheading the event, supported by Jonathan Leach, of Indigo Drum Communications and Matt Crawford, of Embark Federation.

The event is being sponsored by Indigo, Cosy Direct, Vibrant Accountancy and the University of Derby.

The courageous contestants who will stepping into the spotlight include Gillian Sewell, Dean Jackson, of HUUB, Ian Morgan, of Derbyshire County Cricket Club, Bev Wakefield, of Vibrant Accountancy, Tracy Harrison, of Safe and Sound, Anna Upton, of Embark Federation and Stuart Allen, of Derby Theatre.

They will be joined by a host of other inspirational individuals – including double world record-breaking cyclist Leigh Timmis.

The winning dancers will not only claim the coveted Unstrictly Trophy but will also earn a chance to perform in the pre-show of Kiss Me Quickstep on 17 June at Derby Theatre.

Tickets (including dining and show options) are available now at http://www.unstrictly.co.uk .
