Kentish summer ball
Platform 51 West Kent made council's charity of the year

Platform 51 West Kent has been made one of the preferred charities for the Tonbridge and Malling council. On the 6 August 2011 the Mayor and Mayoress of Tonbridge and Malling, Cllr Brian and Mrs Joy Luker are holding a summer ball in aid of Platform 51 and Leybourne Grange Riding Centre for the Disabled at Hermitage Farm.
At this black tie event there will be a drinks reception and a buffet featuring local Kent produce. There will also be a raffle and an auction to help raise money for the two charities.
Cllr Luker said: "I'm hoping this will be a great opportunity for people to join me and my wife, Joy, to help raise funds for these two splendid charities both of which provide such vital services for vulnerable people in our communities."
Tickets for the ball are £50 and all money raised will be split between Platform 51 and Leybourne Grange Riding Centre for the Disabled at Hermitage Farm. To book tickets for the Summer Ball, please call 01732 876005 or email mayors.office@tmbc.gov.uk
