Some £1,605 has been raised by Nottingham professionals for Operation Orphan.
Property and finance industry guests got into the spirit of Christmas at the annual Property Face2Face Christmas networking event.
And while they tucked into lunch at Alea Casino to the glitz and glamour of a 'Strictly fab u lous' theme with professional dancers kicking off the celebrations, the serious work of fund-raising wasn't forgotten.
An auction and prize draw was held in aid of the local children’s charity.
Operation Orphan helps to improve the quality of life for orphans and vulnerable children with a variety of projects including Forget-Me-Notts, a local referral scheme that helps vulnerable children in families to get the help they need fast by partnering with social services.
A total of 160 people attended the Property Face2Face networking Christmas lunch on Friday, December 6, 2019.
