Birmingham’s young professionals dig deep

 It took just three hours for 200 of Birmingham’s young professionals to dig deep at the Ball and raise over £900 for the Birmingham Future Foundation.  This charity supports employment, education and training community projects in Birmingham.

Hosted at the Botanical Gardens in Edgbaston, the Birmingham Future Annual Ball took on a distinctly Bollywood feel for 2010.  After a spicy curry, guests were encouraged to participate in the “black and white card game” and were then offered a second chance to win with a raffle.  

Birmingham Future Chair Amanda Porter, a senior solicitor at Mills & Reeve LLP, was joined on stage by Heart FM DJ Ed James and Ball sponsor and specialist city lettings agent Nicola Fleet-Milne, of FleetMilne Residential, to pick the winners.

Prizes were kindly donated by BHMG Marketing, the Ticket Factory and LG Arena, Birmingham Contemporary Music Group, Brewin Dolphin and the International Dance Festival Birmingham, the Amala Spa at the Hyatt and the Electric Cinema.

The lucky winners on the night were Michael Burgess of Barclays Wealth, Claire Greenwood at Birmingham Development Company, Emma Druckman of PricewaterhouseCoopers, Mike Needham at Jones Lang Lasalle and Russell Porter of 3PB.
