Saturday 15th March 2008 at the Newcastle Marriott Hotel Gosforth Park marked the return of our St. Patrick's Party sponsored by Ryder architects. St. Patrick's Party 2008 was a fabulous evening which raised nearly £7,000 for The Children's Foundation.

The event included an authentic three-course Irish dinner, entertainment and a Ceilidh band. Our auction for 'money can't buy prizes' went well - including the chance of a lifetime to be a ball boy for Newcastle United Football Club. Our 'Luck of the Irish' Tombola couldn't have sold out quicker, with a one in t'ree chance to win a prize!
