On Friday 21st August, at the glamorous Josephine’s bar in Derby, over 300 people descended to drink and dance the night away in support of a great cause. The Cape Verde Foundation Night, organised by The Resort Group staff, played host to employees and friends of The Resort Group and helped to raise over £1000 for the Cape Verde Foundation – an organisation set up to educate and feed underprivileged children in Cape Verde.
Supporting the event were X Factor 2013 finalists Rough Copy, who performed live and held a meet and greet session, as well as Carl Booth – a Nottingham born professional welterweight MMA fighter!
Aside from dancing and meeting the stars, guests also had the chance to get their faces painted for a small donation too – with all proceeds (along with the £5 entry donation) going to the Cape Verde Foundation.
Everyone at the event had an amazing time and we can’t thank all the guests enough for the kind donations to the cause. We’ve picked out some of the best photos from the night below – can you spot who won the “Best African Dress” competition?
