Philip Glenister attends Shooting Star Chase Ball

2/10/2017

On Saturday, Philip attended the annual Shooting Star Chase ball, the charity's flagship fundraising event.

The event, which took place at The Dorchester on Park Lane, was hosted by radio legend Mike Read on the 50th anniversary of BBC Radio 1 and featured a set from Shooting Star Chase Vice President Tony Hadley.

300 guests enjoyed a five course meal by executive chef Henry Brosi before taking part in a live auction of money-can’t-buy lots including tickets to The X Factor final; Afternoon Tea with Dame Joan Collins and Julian Clary; a brand new bespoke Mini Cooper and a car owned by Shooting Star Chase Vice President Simon Cowell – which despite much persuasion by auctioneer Charlie Ross, Louis Walsh couldn’t be convinced to buy!

The total raised by the event is expected to exceed £250,000

A spokesperson for the charity , said: “The Shooting Star Chase Ball is always a very special evening and this year has been no exception. We are so thrilled and overwhelmed by the generosity from each and every one of our guests and their support will make a huge difference to the lives of the children and families we provide vital care for at our hospices.”

Shooting Star Chase is a leading children’s hospice charity caring for babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families in Surrey and London.

Donations made to Shooting Star Chase and Hospice Aid UK

9/3/2014

The results of our poll are in and as you can see from the image below, the final result was a two way tie. In light of this, we have split amount raised between Shooting Star Chase and Hospice Aid UK, resulting in them both having received a donation of £30. Donations were made this morning (9th March).

Unfortunately, on this occasion, due to the online systems used for donating, we were unable to relay to the respective charities that the money had come from fans of their patron, Philip Glenister. We will however be tweeting this article to both charities in that hope that they will see it and know how generous Philip's fans have been.

The money we raise comes from commission earned from Amazon whenever someone makes a purchase through the fansite shop. In the grand scheme of things, the commission earned is quite small compared to the total amount spent, so we urge you to shop through us wherever possible. You can buy anything that is sold on Amazon - it doesn't have to be Phil-related. Just use the Amazon search box on the shop page.

One-off donations can also be made through our GoFundMe page.

At the time of writing (9th March) we have raised £17.71 towards our next donation so, with your support it shouldn't be long until we hit the £25 threshold st by Amazon and are able to make another donation.

If you struggle to remember to use our shop, why not add the URL of the page to your favourites or bookmarks and label it as Amazon?

Thanks again for all your support!!
