Liverpool’s Titanic Hotel hosts Sedulo Foundation’s prestigious Colour Ball

A host of celebrities lit up Liverpool’s Titanic Hotel on Thursday night at the Sedulo Foundation’s annual Colour Ball.

The event brought together stars, supporters and business leaders to raise vital funds for children and young people living in poverty.

Claire Sweeney, Coronation Street actress and proud Liverpudlian, hosted the evening. She was joined by a whole host of famous faces including football legend Jamie Carragher and TV favourites including Linda Robson, Dr Ranj, Real Housewives of Cheshire stars Seema Malhotra and Leanne Brown, and Nermina Pieters-Mekic.

Fashion icon and DJ Gok Wan led the entertainment, along with a roof raising performance from UK Garage stars Lisa Maffia and Romeo, of So Solid Crew.

The event was organised by national advisory firm Sedulo, which has offices in Manchester, Liverpool, London, Leeds and Birmingham. The Colour Ball raises money for the firm’s charitable arm, The Sedulo Foundation.

Since launching in 2022, the Sedulo Foundation has supported more than 2,000 young people. Its work includes providing school equipment, sanitary products, and Christmas gifts for those in need, as well as pathways to employment for young adults from disadvantaged backgrounds.

This year’s event also marked the launch of Fresh Starts, a new initiative providing hygiene kits, everyday wear, and interview-ready outfits for young people entering adulthood.

Last year’s ball raised £200,000. This year’s total exceeded that, making it the biggest event yet for the foundation with a huge £223,000 raised on the night.

Paul Cheetham-Karcz, Founder of Sedulo and the Sedulo Foundation, added:

“Its been a brilliant start to the foundation, we are very proud of the support we are offering now to over 2,000 children, navigating their way through childhood and into adulthood, in difficult circumstances.  We are committed to making sure that all children, regardless of their start in life, get the opportunity to reach their potential.  We would like to place on record our gratitude for all the people who support the foundation, and our initiatives, to help us support children in poverty. This is just the start.”
