1. The Love Ball

About: Join local former Strictly Come Dancing Professional and dance hosts of the very popular Dance Al Fresco events - Andrew Cuerden & Carmen Rendell for an evening of love and dancing.

Andrew & Carmen, directors of Soulhub Ltd, have been wanting to find an option for a winter's event that bridges the cold gap between the summer events at Tide Tables Cafe by Richmond Bridge.

And finally we have found somewhere which enables us to all come together for the perfect affordable evening - Valentine's.

When an old friend arrives to help celebrate their wedding anniversary, it's the perfect excuse for the couple to take their terrifying games to a new level.
