It featured a set from comedian Kev Orkian and live music from band Sway.

Many of the UK's leading companies attended, including UDC, Reflex, Blueprint, Merkur and Suzohapp, among others.

A charity auction was held with prizes such as two tickets to see Arsenal FC, donated by Gabino Stergides of Electrocoin; six tickets to see Manchester United in the Champions League, donated by David Purvis of Blueprint; a meal at the Hippodrome Casino, Leicester Square, donated by Simon Thomas of the Hippodrome and a week in a villa in the south of France, donated by Stephanie Norbury.

Steve Hawkins, chairman of the bacta Charitable Trust and CEO of SX Leisure, said: "A huge thank you to all our sponsors and those who donated auction and raffle prizes - your support is massively appreciated."
