After the event, Julie Gayler, Director of Operations and Marketing at Martha Trust said “The Sandwich Prom in aid of Martha Trust has now become a firm favourite in the local events calendar. Yesterday’s event was again a roaring success and thankfully the sun shone. We are so grateful to everyone who supported us in making the day so special.”

Not to be forgotten are all the musicians who gave up their time to play for free and the help from a band of dedicated volunteers and security men who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure the event ran smoothly. As well as Alan Langley of Dover Designs who gave up his time to capture the event on camera.
Everyone’s efforts proved to be very worthwhile, as the event is anticipated to have raised over £12,000 towards the work of Martha
