Popham Kidney Support’s Annual Spring Ball Returns for a Second Year
Guests at Popham Kidney Support's Spring Ball, last year
Sponsored by Swansea Building Society, the Spring Ball will feature a lineup of special guests, including host Sian Lloyd, TV presenter and Popham Kidney Support Ambassador, along with co-host Kevin Johns and the entertaining Indie band, Who’s Molly?. Anticipating a gathering of over 100 guests, comprising volunteers, healthcare professionals, and dedicated charity supporters, the event promises an evening of impact and community spirit.
The event will also feature five awards, which will recognise and reward supporters, volunteers and kidney patients for their contributions to Popham Kidney Support. Voting for these awards is open now on the Popham Kidney Support website.
A total of £5,000 was raised at last year’s annual ball, which the charity hopes to surpass this year, in order to continue to aid the Children’s Kidney Centre at University Hospital Wales, and the care and support it provides to patients and their loved ones.
Popham Kidney Support is encouraging businesses to participate by sponsoring the event, either by booking a table or purchasing tickets. This support will contribute to raising funds for children with kidney disease, enabling them to experience a better quality of life.
Popham Kidney Support was originally founded as The Paul Popham Fund, Renal Support Wales, in March 2013. The organisation was established six months after the passing of Paul Popham, father to the current CEO, Joanne Popham. Today, under Joanne Popham’s leadership, Popham Kidney Support continues to honour Paul Popham’s legacy and brave battle with kidney disease and kidney cancer, by providing support and raising awareness for those facing kidney-related challenges. Entering its eleventh year, the charity has grown significantly, offering help to over 3,000 people last year alone.
Joanne Popham, Popham Kidney Support CEO, said:
“We are incredibly excited for our Spring Ball event in March, it will help us raise money for the Children’s Kidney Centre and aid the amazing care they provide for children suffering with kidney disease, so that they can lead a better life.”
“This is your golden opportunity to be part of an amazing event, and really make a difference! Why wait? Tickets are still available to purchase —we can’t wait to have you there! Plus, buses will be available to help guests get to the venue.”
