PR boss hosts charity fundraiser at The Amex

After a break of four years, the fantastic Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis (OMS) lunch is back on the menu at The Amex on Thursday, November 2.

Brighton football club owner Tony Bloom will be doing a Q+A with lunch organiser Tim Cobb, and OMS chief executive Alex Holden will explain about the great work the charity is doing to support people with MS. 

An amazing 15 tables have already been sold and Tim hopes to welcome more than 200 people to the event. 

“The response from the business community has been overwhelming,” Tim said. “I was not sure if there was still an appetite for this type of event, so I have been bowled over by the welcome from business friends old and new.”

Tim has linked up with the county’s three key networking groups to further promote the event. County Business Clubs, Network My Club and Best of British have all agreed to start marketing the event.

“Their support means a lot to me,” Tim continued. “They had no hesitation in offering their services, and that was just incredible.”

Handelsbanken has come forward as the first sponsor, and three more categories are up for grabs. Sponsors will get a name-check in all promotional literature, a front-row table and a chance to chat to, and have photos with, Tony Bloom.

Tim was diagnosed with MS in 2012 and found great support and encouragement from Overcoming MS and its chair, Linda Bloom. Linda will be at the event with her husband Tony and it promises to be a top-class day. 

“The football club is also throwing its weight behind the lunch,” Tim added. “They will be promoting the event to fans and we hope to sell a few more seats this way.”
