The Children’s Unit Spring Ball

Your attendance at our Charity Ball will directly support the creation of a dedicated bereavement space on our unit — a calm, private place that gives families comfort and a moment of peace when they need it most.

Event details

Date: Friday 29th May 2026

Time: 18:30 until Midnight

Venue: Somerset County Cricket Club, The Long Room

Tickets:  £55pp or £500 for a table of 10 – includes a three‑course dinner and entertainment.

Dress Code: Our dress code is black tie, but there’s no need to buy or borrow a tuxedo if you don’t have one. Just come in something formal that makes you feel great.

If you are attending as part of a larger group, please make sure all tickets are booked under one name in a single transaction. This ensures we can allocate seats together and avoid anyone being separated (this helps you secure the table discount too)!

If individuals or couples book separately but wish to sit with others. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to seat the whole group together, but please e-mail PaediatricCharity@SomersetFT.nhs.uk with the name of the lead person and contact details for that table and where possible, we will try to help. However booking as one group is the easiest way to secure joint seating.  

Thank you for helping us make the seating process smooth and enjoyable for everyone.
