A casino-themed fundraising event has been announced to help raise cash for a charity that supports disabled people.

Technology distributor Team Upgrade at Exertis will host the event that will include games such as roulette, blackjack and wheel of fortune.

All money raised will be donated to Accuro, who help children and adults with physical and learning difficulties whilst offering support to their families.

The charity was chosen this year by Loughton Town Festival to raise funds throughout May and June raising £1,114.44 in total.

Alex Bright from Exertis said “we couldn’t think of a better charity to work with.

“We became aware of the good work that Accuro do for the community in West Essex when one of our senior managers became a trustee for them over 10 years ago.

“We have since supported them whenever the opportunity has arisen with bake sales, marathons and abseils.”

There will also be an auction and raffle with top prizes including Arsenal V Man U tickets and a Round of Gold at Manor of Groves.

The Charity Casino Night for Accuro will be held at Cannons Brook Golf Course, Elizabeth Way, Harlow on Friday, August 30.

Tickets cost £10 and include raffle entry and a buffet, email
