Gala dinnerCloses 30 Sept 2026

Charity gala dinner, 180 covers

Fundraising dinner with an auction. Every pound spent has to be defensible to trustees.

The brief

Our largest fundraiser of the year. There is an auction after the main course, so the room needs to hear clearly and see the lots.

We publish our event costs in the annual report, which means we need itemised quotes rather than a single figure.

Vegetarian by default with meat on request — roughly a 60/40 split last year.

What your reply must address

  • Itemised quote suitable for publication
  • Audio and screens for a live auction
  • Vegetarian-led menu at £45–60 per head
