Everyone I know adored Kasia because she was a bubbly, funny, adorable person.  Kasia died of Long QT - a rare condition of the heart’s electrical rhythm.

 

The charity night was in memory of Kasia but also to raise money for the CRY charity.

 

The night consisted of a hypnotist called David Knight; a raffle with a huge variety of prizes; and auction which raised £65 (for a signed Newcastle top).

 

The night ended with a disco which had everyone on the dance floor.

 

The night was a huge success and it raised £2127.52. All money will be donated to Kasia's memorial fund at CRY.

 

I would like to say a huge thank you to my friends; Claire Lavery, Stacey Proudlock, Claire Burlinson, Sarah Graham, Jade Jepson and Lucy Foster who were absolutely great. They dedicated their time to help me put the night together.

 

I would also like to thank David Knight, Richard Brown, Gavin who did the disco, Peterlee Leisure Centre and anyone who donated anything towards the night - also CRY for their help sending balloons and leaflets to raise awareness.

 

Without all your kind help the night would not have been able to take place. Due to the night being so successful I hope to arrange a similar event each year, around the same time, to raise money for the CRY charity to raise awareness of Long QT.
