The annual Snow Ball at Nailcote Hall Hotel Golf & Country Club has raised more than £5,000 for The Salvation Army.

The charity have also received sackfuls of gifts for their Christmas Toy Appeal, which will be delivered to disadvantaged children in the area on Christmas Day, thanks in part, to donations from the 220 guests who attended on the night in Balsall Common.

Hotelier Sue Cressman said: “The Snow Ball starts all of our Christmas Party Nights at Nailcote Hall. We have produced this event for 20 years and it goes from strength to strength. We are grateful to our sponsors Bidfood Food Service who, without their kind donation, we would not be able to present the top class entertainment we have each year.”

“This year there was a bumper amount of toys and gifts donated with a room filled with presents.  I am so very grateful to all that attended this very special event.”

Helping to create the event’s festive atmosphere were The Salvation Army Band plus ‘special’ guests, Santa – ably assisted by Mrs Claus, Fairies, and The Elf on the Shelf.

A festive three-course meal was followed by performance courtesy of Britain’s Got Talent finalist Pippa Langhorne and the night ended with an auction, raffle and dancing to The Soundations, before Nailcote Hall’s resident DJ Franco wrapped up the evening’s entertainment.

Sue added: “We’re already taking bookings for The Snow Ball 2025 which will be on November 28th. This event goes from strength to strength, helping the vulnerable members of our community.”
