A dedicated couple of fundraisers are organising their 25^th 1940’s-inspired Hangar Dance in Beccles in aid local Hospice care.

Ken and Sue Woodgate, of Lowestoft, are organising the event at the original T2 hangars in aid of St Elizabeth Hospice, which provides specialist care for people in East Suffolk. Waveney and Great Yarmouth.

The Hangar Dance will be held over two nights at Ellough Airfield, Beccles, on Friday 27^th and Saturday 28^th June 2014.

Most people dress up in 1940’s war-time costumes and there will be period music from the Super Swing Big Band. There will also be military vehicles, a Lindy Hop display and refreshments.

Mr and Mrs Woodgate were part of a group which launched the dances 14 years ago in aid of Waveney Hospice Care, which merged with St Elizabeth Hospice in 2011.

Ken Woodgate said: “The Hangar Dance is always a night to remember and this year will be no exception as reach the milestone of our 25^thevent. St Elizabeth Hospice is a fantastic charity which is already supporting people in Waveney and Great Yarmouth. We hope to raise thousands of pounds to continue to reach out to more local patients.”
