The Foundation’s Annual Dinner will take place in the Woodlands Suite at Ribby Hall on Saturday 22nd April 2007 at 7.00pm.

The entertainment is once again provided by Comedian Jonny Casson.

Tickets are priced at £27 per head. Tables of 10 or 12 can be reserved, but you do not need to make up a table.

Gentlemen's dress: Smart.
Ladies’ dress: They don’t need telling!

To make your reservation, send your name and those of any guests, with a cheque made out to The Richard J Wilson Sports Foundation to 30 Wray Crescent, Wrea Green, Preston, PR4 2WA as soon as possible. This is a very popular event and sells out extremely quickly.
Note: Any vegetarian meals required must be indicated when the booking is made.

More than £7,000 was raised by the annual dinner in 2006 courtesy of a fantastic auction conducted by the irrepressible local auctioneer Andrew Firth.

TV Star Jonny Casson entertained the 280 guests present with John Lyon acting as MC for the evening.

Graham Lloyd (ex Lancashire & England Cricketer), Helen Jones, Graham Kelly (Former Chief Executive of the FA) and Mike KIng (MC for the evening)
