An 80s throwback night is set to bring the curtain down on Barnstaple’s mayoral fundraising year, with music, bingo and a buffet all lined up in aid of two local charities.
Mayor of Barnstaple Cllr Janet Coates is inviting residents and visitors to an 80s-themed musical bingo evening in support of Barum Boxing Club and Man Down.
The event is due to take place at Barnstaple Rugby Club on Friday, April 10 at 7pm. Guests are being encouraged to wear 80s-inspired clothing for the evening.
Tickets cost £10 and include entry and a hot buffet. Proceeds will go to the mayor’s chosen charities, Barum Boxing Club and Man Down.
The fundraiser will also mark Cllr Coates’s final fundraising engagement as mayor ahead of the appointment of a new mayor in May.
Cllr Coates said: “It has been an honour and a privilege to serve as Mayor of Barnstaple, and I am pleased to conclude my Mayoral year with an event that combines community spirit with fundraising for two very important causes.
“I look forward to welcoming everyone for what promises to be a fun evening.” Tickets are available online from www.barnstapletowncouncil.gov.uk/mayors-ball/
