Updated Jan.26 - Natalie's Valentine's Ball
It's staggering the response this website has received and I'd personally like to thank each and everyone of you for visiting and donating. It's a true testament to Natalie the amount that has been raised for such a worthy cause. Thank you so much.
While Natalie's passing is still so fresh in our minds, it is still important to remember her strength and determination to beat cancer, which is why I am pleased to tell you about Natalie's Valentine's Ball 2009. The 1st annual Ball in honour of Nat will be held at the Holiday Inn, Festival Leisure Park, Basildon on Friday 13th February from which all sales of the tickets/raffle tickets and wrist bands will be added to the total here. For £35 you get entry to the 2 function suites of the Hotel including 2 course buffet, DJ, comedian (TBC) and a raffle/auction which has been supported by companies such as Disney, Fitness First, Romford Dogs, Greenswood Hotel & Spa, Langdon Hills Golf club and many more. There will be a professional photographer there to take portraits/photos of which you will be able to buy and take away on the night.
Wristbands for Natalie's new website which will be launched on the night will also be available.
A member of the Cancer Research UK team will be on hand to give a 5 minute talk on how the money raised will go on to help and speak to anyone looking for advice.
The hotel have kindly offered us discounted rooms for guests attending when quoting Natalie's Valentine's Ball.
Doors open at 7.30pm- Carriages for Midnight (Bar closes 1am). This is a black tie event so suits at least for the gents, black/pink dresses for the ladies. Due to a lack of availability - no children, sorry.
Please contact me for tickets on 07701 017642.
Looking forward to seeing you all on what will be a memorable night in honour of an unforgettable woman.

Thank you for visiting this fundraising page. Thank you to my dear friend Dave for creating it, your one in a million.
Natalie lost her 15 month battle with cancer on Sunday 26th October 12.10am, in my arms surrounded by her family in Southend hospital. The day British Summer time ended was the day my angel passed, the day my world stopped spinning.
Nat was the bravest there will ever be. Her strength and determination will live within us forever. No matter how poorly the cancer or treatment made her, she always managed a smile. An incredible lady that will be missed for my remaining years and by all that knew her.
Please donate what you can to help support a very worthy cause, one that Natalie raised £1000 for just a few months ago taking part in the race for life. Natalie did not want flowers at her funeral but to instead continue raising money for a charity that will hopefully stop this evil disease.
The funeral will take place at St.Mary's Church in Runwell, Wickford (SS11 7JQ) on Thursday 6th November at 9.30am followed by drinks at the Quart Pot just a few metres away. Everyone is welcome and I mean everyone, so please come and celebrate the life of the unforgettable Natalie Perry.
Thanks.
