All free
entertainment, we had bands playing live music - including
John's younger brother Michael - a comedy act, and raffles
with some fabulous prizes donated from local businesses and
also Everton FC and Liverpool FC.
Prizes
included restaurant
vouchers, tickets to Liverpool Echo Arena concerts, signed
footballs, salon vouchers, gym memberships, shopping
vouchers and many more.
We also held an auction for a mini 'Superlambanana' (famous
in Liverpool!!) and for football boots signed by Everton's
Phil Jagielka.
A fantastic night all round for John, and everyone really
enjoyed it - especially as £1500 was raised despite
the venue's capacity being around 60 people (paying just £5
a ticket for the night) - some very generous people!
This was a big step for me to do a night in memory of John,
but I am so glad that I did and that the money raised can go
towards another successful screening in memory of such a
wonderful big brother.
