Book now for the Willow Wood anniversary ball

Local celebrities Mark Llewellin and Jane Hodson will be donating their services as Master and Mistress of Ceremonies at the forthcoming Willow Ball, it has been announced.

Mark is a patron of the hospice and has hosted a number of fundraising events at Daisy Nook Garden Centre, where he juggles his directorship with after-dinner speaking, hosting events and writing.  

Jane is also no stranger to Willow Wood, they were co-hosts of the Ashton Variety Show, produced and directed by Mark at the sadly missed Tameside Hippodrome. 

They have worked together for 27 years after meeting while working on a radio documentary and have delighted audiences ever since as after-dinner speakers, broadcasters and more. 

The ball is being held at the Best Western Smokies Park Hotel on Saturday, October 5, with the wonderful Andy Powell and His Swing Band the headline entertainers.  

This year’s ball will mark the hospice’s 20th anniversary. Visit www.willowwood.info for more details and to book tickets.
