Winter Ball 2025

Helping children who are seriously unwell make the most of every day

Over three decades a twelve-strong group of dedicated fundraisers, The Winter Ball Committee, have raised over £23m for children’s charities through their flagship event, The Winter Ball.

The Winter Ball will boast a four-course dinner, live and silent auctions, plenty of glamour and star-filled entertainment. During the evening, significant funds will be raised to ensure more babies, children and young people who are seriously unwell can make the most of every day.

We are looking forward to this celebratory evening at the newly refurbished Dorchester Hotel on Saturday 29th November, in the company of new and old friends of the charity.

Leslie Rose OBE 
Chair of The Winter Ball Committee

Leslie is chair of Grange Park Marketing, which specialises in promotional merchandise. His main passion after his family and football team is helping to raise funds for children’s charities and he received his greatest accolade when the Queen presented him with an OBE for services to families and their children. Leslie has been involved with the Winter Ball Committee for over 30 years and has helped raise more than £23 million.

“Myself and the rest of the Committee couldn’t think of a charity more deserving of our support. Noah’s Ark is growing at pace and has great ambitions for the children it supports, all whilst showing great heart and humility.”
