Guests of the evening enjoyed reception drinks and a delicious four course meal which was prepared by highly-skilled Bury College Catering students. Entertainment included the sound of bagpipes by Bolton Caledonia Pipe Band and the traditional address to a Haggis.
The evening finished with a raffle with the donations going to the nominated Mayoral Charities which are the Bury Hospice and Buddy’s for Children with Autism.

Ben said, “It was great to be in the kitchen tonight and I really enjoyed the experience of working under pressure and managing different aspects of the kitchen.”
