    Congratulations on your nomination for an award at the Care Leavers Celebration Event. We are really proud of your achievements and look forward to celebrating the evening with you. This will be a chance to celebrate your success and that of other Care Leavers, along with your PA. 

    We are able to offer you 1 ticket for yourself if you would like to go.

    Young people from the Care Leaver's Advisory Board (CLAB) have chosen the colour scheme which is... RED AND SILVER, so please feel free to wear your best outfits, or whatever you feel most comfortable in. 

    The evening will start from 5pm where you will have time to mingle with your PA and other Care Leavers, so please feel free to start arriving from this time. At 6pm, you will be served an incredible 3 course meal. After this, we will hold a short ceremony where we will be giving out trophies and certificates and announcing the winners of each category. From around 8pm there will be a disco until 10pm which is when the event will finish.

    The event will be held at Avisford Park Hotel, Yapton Ln, Walberton, Arundel BN18 0LS. Please report to reception and we will come and show you the way. There is ample parking on site, or if you are planning on getting the train or another mode of transport, please let your PA know as we will be offering a shuttle bus system on the night to and from Barnham Station.
