Our annual Diamond Ball once again proved to be a standout evening in the calendar, bringing together supporters, partners, and friends for an unforgettable night in support of two incredible causes.

The event was a joint fundraiser for The King's Trust and The Arete Foundation, united by a shared commitment to creating positive change and opportunity.

Guests were welcomed with a drinks reception, generously sponsored by Inspired Energy, setting the tone for an evening of celebration, connection, and purpose.

One of the most memorable moments came from Lewis Nickson, a young entrepreneur supported by The King’s Trust, who shared his inspiring journey of building Poly UP with his brother. His heartfelt speech captivated the room and brought to life the real impact of support from both The Arete Foundation and The King’s Trust.

Entertainment was a true highlight of the night, with Chesney Hawkes delivering an electric performance that had the room on its feet and brought the house down.

A special moment of the evening was our much-anticipated raffle, featuring a stunning diamond, kindly provided by David M Robinson — a prize that perfectly reflected the glamour and generosity of the occasion.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to our fabulous charity partner, The King’s Trust, as well as to everyone who attended and supported the event. Your continued enthusiasm and generosity are what make nights like this possible.

We’re already looking ahead — and we can’t wait for next year.
