On November 28th, 2025, over 160 guests gathered at the Gosforth Park Hotel to celebrate Coquet Trust’s 30th Anniversary. The night was filled with warmth, inspiration, and heartfelt moments as staff, supporters, and the people we support came together to mark this remarkable milestone.
The evening kicked off at 6:30pm with drinks on arrival and a couples’ photo shoot with photographer Zoe Campbell, setting the tone for a sophisticated and fun-filled evening. At 7:00pm, our Chief Executive, Victoria Neish, welcomed everyone and reminded us of the importance of the work we do. A heartfelt video followed, showcasing the incredible stories of those who we support or who work at Coquet Trust, inspiring everyone in the room.
The meal, accompanied by table magician Glen Ward, was a highlight, with laughter and magic filling the air. At 8:30pm, the charity auction and raffle draw raised vital funds for our ongoing work.
We were especially grateful for the support of our headline sponsor, Medsolve, whose generosity helped make the evening possible. Their commitment to Coquet Trust and the people we support is deeply appreciated.
The evening continued with a fantastic performance by singer Sarah Lumsdon, followed by DJ-led dancing at 10:15pm. It was a night of joy, laughter, and celebration, a perfect end to our year of 30th-anniversary events.
This special gala was a beautiful reminder of the incredible impact Coquet Trust has had over three decades. It was an unforgettable evening, one that will stay with us as we look forward to many more years of supporting those who need it most.
