MORE than 100 people packed into Dedham Assembly Rooms for Last Night of the Proms.

A live feed was established from the Royal Albert Hall to a giant screen with the audience on their feet as the night came to a close.

The event was organised in aid of Colchester Samaritans, who are celebrating their 50th anniversary, and raised £1,225.

Organiser Jill Strangward said: “I was so pleased that everyone enjoyed the party, the concert and the singing. I have never seen so many Union Jack flags in one place and so many revellers dressed up in red, white and blue.”
