Yorkshire Travel Ball celebrates 25th anniversary

About £5,000 was raised for charities as the Yorkshire Travel Ball celebrated its 25th anniversary in July.

The event took place at the Village Hotel in Leeds, with 165 travel agents joined by 14 partners including tour operators, cruise lines, resort operators and flight and accommodation specialists.

Over its 25-year history, the Yorkshire Ball has raised more than £107,000 for Abta LifeLine, cancer and hospice charities and a range of good causes supporting animal welfare.

Proceeds from the 2023 event went to animal charities including Trunks Up, Four Paws, Brooke, Animals Asia, Greek Cats and Starlight Barking.

Organiser Sandy Murray paid tribute to all those who donated and to the suppliers who have supported the event over a quarter of a century.
