The
Guideposts Ball
SATURDAY 15TH OCTOBER | 3:30PM – 11:00PM
EXETER HALL, KIDLINGTON
Let’s party like it’s 1972
You are warmly invited to The Guideposts Ball – an inclusive evening of fun and dancing where we will celebrate the charity’s 50th anniversary in style.
The night will include a three-course meal, raffle and bingo prizes, a live music set, and a disco where you can dance the night away.
This year we’re taking you back to 1972 – the year Guideposts was founded. Make sure you pay a visit to our 70s photobooth where you can try on a range of retro accessories!

If you need support from a carer, you can book a ticket for them at no extra cost.
Will there be transport to the venue?
We’ll be organising transport to take people from our three regions – Gloucestershire, Hertfordshire, and Oxfordshire – to the venue. Please indicate on the booking form if you would like transport assistance and we will keep you in the loop about what we are arranging.

We will send you your ticket and wristband 1 week before the event begins. You’ll also get your free bingo and raffle ticket if you booked an early bird ticket.
