Friday 4th November at the Monastery in Manchester, care provider CIC organised a celebrity-backed fundraiser, held in aid of a ground-breaking dementia service it is developing in Manchester. The Masquerade Ball event was hosted by Salford born film and television actor Robert Powell (Jesus of Nazareth, Holby City) and featured musical entertainment from local X-Factor star, Laura White. The night was a great success and the a lot of money was raised. The Monastery Manchester makes a great backdrop for any event, Jan and Dennis were married here back in September and I would recommend the venue to anyone looking for something a little different. Here are a few photographs from the charity event.

What a wonderful weekend in the Staffordshire woods! We have had the pleasure of photographing the magical events at the The Just So Festival, a boutique, weekend-long festival of creativity aimed at children, young people and their families.

The festival provides a magical experience where art, music and literature are embedded and entwined in a beautiful and wonderous landscape. Every clearing and glade holds a new way to unleash creativity allowing families to discover the spectacular woodland environment during this wonderful weekend event.

Here are a few sneak peeks from the weekend. We would recommend you go next year people, absolutely magical for the little ones!

How the other half live hey! A relaxing break in Abersoch was the job for this weekend. The hot tub pictures had to stay off the blog! The Jones’s hideaway retreat had us all chilled out, thanks again Beverley & Kevin.
