On Friday 21st June over 150 DHBT supporters joined us at The Carriage House @chatsworthofficial for our 50th anniversary celebration dinner.
Guests enjoyed a truly special evening - spending time, upon arrival, to view our exhibition and relax and reflect in the Chatsworth rose garden.
DHBT trustee, @archmusicman, who is a professional countertenor, performed some beautiful compositions by Henry Purcell, expertly accompanied by lutenist, Sam Brown.
The Earl of Burlington then gave a welcome speech ahead of the delicious three course meal.
Sarah McLeod OBE and DHBT Chairman, Derek Latham, both gave speeches at the end of the night.
The evening - which included a raffle and silent auction - raised over £9,000 for our charity. Whilst some of this recovers the cost of the exhibition, the majority will go towards the funding deficit from rescuing Wingfield Station.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible - we appreciate your support Please continue to tag us in your photos, which we’ve loved seeing.
Special mentions to @lisbth_s @globellaevents, Mike and Eppie for the months of work and planning behind the scenes!
