The British Ball Beijing was attended by over 650 people on 12th November at Shangri-La’s Kerry Centre hotel. It was a roaring success with over RMB 200,000 raised for charity. Wang Liwei of Charitarian made a speech on behalf of Wuxun foundation which trains rural teachers and provides equipment of impoverished schools.  Attended by the Ambassador, it was a great evening with a theme of ‘a day at the races’.  Charitarian contributed a picture for the art auction which, with other prizes, raised substantial funds.
