Hey Guys,
I would defo be up for something like this.
I might be able to help out with design of leaflets and print costs if needed. I also have lots of PR contacts whom might like to help. (I work for a fabulous direct marketing agency).
Let me know if any of this will help.

hi everyone
i've just started emailing a few places to see about hiring a room somewhere. because i know it, i've been looking in Birmingham to begin with - i know we discussed Manc, but to get a feel for things i've started with Brum.
i've contacted 3 places so far - Edgbaston Cricket Ground, Bham Botanical Gardens and somewhere else i can't remember 😱
i have explained that we are looking to host something small, less than 50 people, and that we are doing it with the aim of raising money for DUK. i have then gone on to say that in that respect, we are looking to keep costs to a minimum, and would they be able to donate the space for us to host this.
in terms of raising money, i don't think this needs to be our big issue (that would be HAVING FUN AND CELEBRATING) but it helps our case of finding somewhere cheap!
i've heard back from Edgbaston CG who want to know more details about what we're after. shall i tell them we would want carb-free catering i have a few other places i can try that aren't so glam (eg there is a gym in birmingham that will donate a room and some buffet food to charities, i went to an event there last year).
as i say this is just some initial research and i have no intention whatsoever of booking anything or anything like that - just want to see the initial response i get!

A charity I know of did a ball, and I'm pretty sure there were less than 50 people. They did it at a hotel and then the hotel offered reduced rates on rooms if people booked to stay there. I have no idea of costs involved in this type of thing but might be something just to look into.
