MNDA Charity Ball 2024
On Saturday 9th November, members of GEM Partnership were privileged to attend an MNDA Charity Ball at the Clarion Hotel Boldon, with fundraising efforts going towards Paddy Urwin, a Hebburn Town FC coach who was sadly diagnosed with MND in 2018.
GEM Partnership have long standing ties with Hebburn Town and their Junior teams, with volunteering efforts and team sponsorship over the years. For the evening and its fundraising efforts, GEM donated a prize and those in attendance were overwhelmed by the contributions of everyone who sponsored, donated prizes and showed their support. It was an absolutely wonderful evening under the backdrop of a desperate situation and a great show of community spirit and businesses coming together.
