Along with a seperate display for kids, to make the event really extra special, GWRT have organised BBC Children in Need's Pudsey Bear to be at the show. We also have laid on 'designated area' where the kids can buy sparklers and use them under supervision.

So, where does all the money raised go? The answer is simples.

Being a local charity—all of the money raised for this event goes to local worthy causes in Bristol—so to you potentially!. This is what is so great about our charity event, you get a fantastic night out—while having a magnificent nights entertainment that is fun for everyone.
