The cause:
All profits for the evening will go to the NSPCC to help fund their services, including the NSPCC Child Protection Helpline (0800 056 0566) which provides a free, vital lifeline and a friendly voice for children and worried adults. Last year the NSPCC Helpline received over 192,000 calls, 9,000 of which led to urgent referrals for immediate action. However, 62,000 calls went unanswered, leaving thousands of vulnerable children at risk.

By supporting the Oil Barons’ Ball you can enable the NSPCC to answer more of these calls and protect children from immediate harm and abuse. Bring your friends, colleagues and loved ones to make the evening a success. For NSPCC's home page click here. For more information as to the Helpline click here.
