A homelessness charity in Mossley said it will host another annual community fundraising dinner this month.

On Thursday, February 23, Emmaus Mossley, a charity which works to support homeless people, will be hosting the 14th annual Mossley 'SOUP' event where residents can enjoy a dinner while raising money for charitable causes.

Organisers of the event are appealing to members of the public to attend and support the crowdfunder, which is sponsored by Premier Kia.

The Mossley SOUP aims to bring the community together and promote, fundraiser and support new ideas and projects in the local area.

Residents can attend, give their support and help select one of four projects to receive all of the funds raised at the event.

For just £5 a ticket, diners will receive a freshly made soup and get to hear pitches from all four of the projects before casting their votes.

Each presenter has four minutes to share their idea and will answer four questions from the audience.

There will also be guest speakers, live music and a fundraising raffle to keep attendees entertained throughout the night.

The more people who attend, the most funds that are raised for the winning project.

Past Mossley SOUP dinners have raised between £545 and £1,726 with past winners including Mossley Social Club for Disabled Adults, Micklehurst Cricket Club Junior Section, George’s Den and Lifeline Community Ambulance.

The event starts at 6.15pm at Emmaus Mossley.
