Over a grand and still counting

MancTwester Local saw people turn out from all parts of Manchester’s digital community - academics, agencies, client side. The charity auction got pulses racing with a Wii, a case of Tsing Dao beer, a box of goodies from Durex and a NorthFace ice wall climbing experience. Marv was on the decks till late and a good time was had by all.

Big thanks to Sun Microsystems for sponsoring the event, McCann Manchester for organising it, Andy O’Brien for his compere skills and HouseBar9 for loaning us the bar. Over £1000 has been raised from the sponsorship, charity auction and ticket sales.

We hope that St Ann’s Hospice will be able to put the money to good use.
