The James Bond Casino Night, Licence to Thrill, held in September, was a fantastic evening of entertainment and generosity, all in support of The Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity. More than £5,000 was raised for the charity, which provides vital support to construction workers and their families, offering: ● Emergency financial aid ● Mental health support ● Assistance during tough times. Special thanks go to Richard Lionel from Glorious Building Co, who took on the role of MC with enthusiasm. He channelled his inner Bond – blue swim shorts and all – in true Daniel Craig style. Nicola extended her thanks to: ● Kensi Hope Interiors for the prize of a Bluetooth mirror ● Fix Radio for merchandise ● Gaucho for a £250 dining voucher. Licence to Thrill – a spectacular success
