STEVEN Bell's Touch of Class charity ball this year will be held on October 7 at Gisborough Hall.

The evening is held on behalf of the Holistic Cancer Care Centre and is now in its sixth year

Steven, owner of Chapters Hotel and Restaurant in Stokesley, has spoken of his delight at hitting the £100,000 jackpot since the event started.

He hosts the event with his brother Peter Bell of the House designer wear shop. Steven said: “I would like to thank everyone who attended last year’s event and particular thanks go to the sponsors and all those who kindly donated prizes. It was a fantastic evening and we are thrilled to have raised so much money for the charity.”

Using therapies that complement orthodox cancer treatments, The Holistic Cancer Care Centre supports patients through the physical side effects and emotional roller coaster that experiencing a cancer diagnosis brings.

Lynne Gray, deputy manager at the Holistic Cancer Care Centre, said: “All the efforts to make A Touch of Class such a success are very much appreciated. To have raised £100,000 over five years is a tremendous achievement, even more so in the current economic climate”.
