The Old Wesley Business lunch took place last Friday, 22nd November, and was an outstanding success. Over 140 guests were wined and dined while Alan Shortt was a masterful MC. Richard Bruton TD, Minister for Communications, Climate & Environment was the first speaker and post lunch Alex Waugh from Banbridge provided a knockout out performance of humour.
Apart from being a significant fund raiser this event has become a very important part of developing corporate partners for the club. Household names such as AIB, Zurich, EY, LK Shields, Ulster Bank, Spirit Motors, Maples plus many more all sponsored tables.
Apart from the club being the main beneficiary, proceeds from the very successful auction were shared with three very deserving charities Pieta House, Focus Ireland, & Threshold.
