NCASS meet Lady Elsie at St James’ Park 18 May 2015

The 2015 Newcastle NCASS ball in March raised a very healthy and now finalised sum of £1,029.16 from the sale of raffle tickets, providing the opportunity of winning some excellent prizes kindly donated by local businesses and societies. 

The chosen recipient of the monies was the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation cancer charity and it was entirely fitting that the cheque was formally handed over to Sir Bobby’s wife, Lady Elsie, and Liz Luff of the charity, at St James’ Park, home of Newcastle United where Sir Bobby was manager for 5 years.

Pictured (from l to r) are Andrew Jackson (NorSCA President), Joanne Lucking (ICAEW), Ellen Arkless (NCASS), Laura Ireland (NCASS), Charlotte Christie (NCASS), Lady Elsie Robson, Chris Soan (NCASS President) and Keith Proudfoot (ICAEW).
