Terrence Higgins Trust creates the perfect mix at the cocktail club

Terrence Higgins Trust (THT) supporters raised a record breaking £27,000 at the annual Cocktail Club event on June 14.  The sell out evening took place in the chic surroundings of the Shop at Bluebird, Kings Road.  Over 400 people attended and were treated to cocktails created by top mixologists. 

Grey Goose provided cocktail bars which were themed, from the classic, which served traditional martinis, to the futuristic, which had more unusual drinks on offer. Kiehl’s sponsored the event and provided guests with individual consultations and Kiehl’s products to take away. 

Debbie Holmes, Director of Fundraising said “We’re delighted at the amount raised this year,   the atmosphere was fantastic! Thanks to all who came along to show their support.  The money raised will go directly towards our vital work supporting people living with or affected by HIV.”
