The funds raised would be enough to pay for the centre’s Early Intervention Group to run for three months.

A ‘frightful night’ saw zombies from Dark Encounters at Fort Widley greet guests before a performance from the SJ Academy of Dance.

A live and silent auction was then 
held with prizes such as a sailing trip on the Solent, tickets to see England v Argentina at Twickenham, a signed polo shirt from Friends actor Matt LeBlanc and a luxury spa break.

The centre supports children and adults with cerebral palsy, Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis and those recovering from a stroke or head injury from across the Solent region.

The ball concluded with a lively night on the dance floor.
