Business Fundraiser at Silverstone
We were delighted to host 50 business leaders for our B4 Platinum Dinner set against the backdrop of iconic British motorsport history at @Silverstone Museum last month. Thank you to all of our guests who helped raise over £2,000 for British Heart Foundation. Here’s what our guests had to say about the evening:
B4 held it’s first business fundraising event of the year at Silverstone in March and raised over £2,000 for the British Heart Foundation.
Quotes from our hosts, Silverstone Museum

“I thought it was a great evening, well organized Tina. Richard, not sure you can offer your services as a professional raffle drawer !!!”
Craig Dunkerley, Chief Executive, Silverstone Museum

Quote from BHF
“Absolute top draw event, great team, fabulous location, amazing generous people. Thanks to Richard and Tina Rosser for putting it together. Can’t forget my raffle ticket wingman Brooke Williams and auctioneer extraordinaire Craig Dunkerley, thank you one and all. An outstanding evening, thank you all for your amazing generosity, over £2000 going towards life-saving research into heart and circulatory disease for the British Heart Foundation.
“Thank you for the kind words of support Richard & Tina, but you are far too humble. Guests attended due to B4’s reputation and your events inspire relationships, are genuinely unique and are built on the trust you have gained with your community over many years, we merely piggy backed that for the evening. It was a joy to work with you all.
“The tables were immaculately prepared by Tina, and your work with the venue (which was spectacular as you can see) really paid off as they engaged us all with cracking story’s of racing and Lancaster bombers.
“So it’s a huge thank you and well done to you Richard, Tina and B4 team, for getting the “Heart of Oxford” business board funding off the ground. Long may it continue.”
Chris McCormack, Partnership Manager, British Heart Foundation

Thank you to everyone at the museum for the hospitality which was first class. A platinum venue for a platinum organisation!”
