Over 100 people attended last week’s event at Shaka Zulu bar in Camden Market, including fellow councillors, community leaders and Camden residents.
Mayor Revah said: “We had a fantastic night at Shaka Zulu last week. All the funds raised on the night, which was in excess of £22,000 will go towards my chosen charity KIDS – which does amazing work helping disabled children and their families.”
KIDS is a national charity which has worked to transform the lives of disabled children and young people for more than forty-five years.
It supports children with any kind of disability, from birth until age twenty-five, with a range of play, development, learning and training opportunities and provides information, advice, respite and activity groups to support parents and carers.
