🥊💙 An Evening with Frank Bruno MBE – What a Night! ❤️🥊
What an unforgettable evening we shared with the incredible Frank Bruno MBE. The room fell silent as he spoke about his journey — from the highs of the boxing ring to the personal battles he faced away from it. His honesty, humour, and strength inspired us all. Frank reminded everyone that sometimes the hardest fights in life aren’t against an opponent… they’re the ones we fight within ourselves. 💙🥊
Hosted beautifully by Paul Speak and Ben Shires, the evening was filled with laughter, warmth, and connection. Their energy set the tone from the very start and carried us through a night none of us will forget. ❤️
The night opened with the wonderful Annis, whose stunning voice filled the room and reminded us how powerful it is when people share their talents for a good cause. Later, DJ Tina and Karl made sure the dance floor stayed full — the perfect ending to a perfect evening. 🎶
A huge thank you to Chris Booth, who captured the magic of the night through his lens — photos that will forever remind us what community spirit looks like. 📸
We were honoured to welcome European Champion Emily Denham, who joined Frank on stage to share a moment celebrating strength, determination, and success. Frank congratulated her on her incredible achievements and wished her every success for the future. 🏆
And we can’t forget the amazing food from Janie’s Pantry — a feast that brought everyone together around the table, just as we always aim to do in our community. 🍽️
Massive thanks to our generous corporate sponsors, Murtek and Belvedere Lets, whose belief in what we do helps us reach more hearts and save more lives. And to the incredible team at GLOW Church — thank you for opening your doors, your hearts, and your space to us. 💙
A special shout-out to Riley and Carter, who raised an incredible amount with their football cards — two young lads proving that age doesn’t matter when it comes to making a difference. ❤️💙🥊
The auction, led by the brilliant Ben Shires, was a huge success — with every single item sold! Each bid, each cheer, and each act of generosity moves us closer to our goal: ensuring that every community has access to life-saving equipment when it’s needed most. ❤️
We’ll be announcing the total raised very soon, along with details of our next project — installing defibrillators and bleed control kits across our local area, protecting families, teams, and communities for years to come. 💙
To every single person who attended, supported, performed, volunteered, donated, or simply shared a smile — you are the heartbeat of this cause. Your kindness, passion, and belief in what we do keep us fighting for every life that can still be saved.
❤️💙🥊 Together, we’re proving that love, laughter, and community can turn tragedy into hope — and hope into action. 🥊💙❤️
