Baxenden: Social Night at old Con Club - 19th September 2015

A charity night in aid of Accrington Victoria Hospital Dialysis Unit will take place on the 19th September starting from 8:30pm at Baxenden Social Club (formerly the Con). This event is being run by Michael Fox, whose father, Gordon, kindly donated a kidney to his niece, Paula Fox after being found to be the only suitable donor without months on the Donor Waiting List.

Michael said "The event is being run for my father who donated a kidney a few months ago and had to use the dialysis unit quite a lot. It's a much needed facility within our community and the staff there are great so its fantastic to be raising money for this cause. I couldn't have planned this event without help, and would like to thank everybody who has been able to make this event happen."

Local resident David Hartley said, "The charity night will also have live music from The Soundcasters, with guest appearances from The Sparkle Sisters. The night will be informal and everybody is welcome! Many local businesses have kindly donated prizes for raffle, and if there are any businesses who wish to contribute then please get in contact with Michael on 07583374610."
