Tickets are still available for a glitzy ball in aid of the NSPCC.
The Emerald Ball is being organised by the Colchester NSPCC Business Group and has already sold 200 tickets to raise money for the Essex Young Witness programme.
To publicise the event, acrobats, jugglers and clowns from Zippos Circus and fire breather Richard Palmer, came to Colchester’s Weston Homes Community Stadium, on Friday.
The ball will take place at the stadium on November 29, and tickets cost £100.
