NMBS Dinner Dance returns with CRASH as a charity partner
CRASH is proud to have been the chosen charity at this year’s NMBS Dinner Dance; the biggest and best social event in the Independent Merchants calendar. Over 1,000 members and suppliers came together in the prestigious Great Room at Grosvenor House hotel to enjoy brilliant food, music, and company.
Guests gave generously during the charity draw and combined with a donation from NMBS to round up the total, an incredible £10,000 was raised for CRASH. This donation will help deliver essential construction projects that aim to improve the lives of vulnerable people across the UK.
A huge thank you to NMBS for inviting CRASH to a brilliant evening, Makita for donating the amazing raffle prize of an iPad Pro and to all those who donated to CRASH in the charity draw, helping to make our work possible.
It was great to see CRASH Corporate Patrons, ACO Technologies, British Gypsum, Etex and Knauf as event sponsors and an extra special mention to guests Richard Hill and Katcha Kersten from ACO Technologies, as well as Sam and Matt Hanks from Knauf, who kindly volunteered their time to help with the charity collection – with such a great turn out of guests, it really couldn’t have been done without you!
“NMBS are always happy to support CRASH and we value the major contribution they make to supporting the homeless and hospices with vital construction products, that put caring for people at the very centre of the built environment.”

“The NMBS certainly know how to put on a wonderful event. My sincere thanks to Chris Hayward, Sam Hunt and the rest of the NMBS team for choosing to partner with CRASH. Guests gave so generously and it’s an incredible gesture for NMBS to round up the donations raised. £10,000 will make an immense difference to our work with homelessness charities and hospices – thank you.”
