Marlborough Trust Dance Extravaganza
Dance Extravaganza Marlborough Trust is sponsoring the Dance Extravaganza at Beau Sejour on Saturday 27th June, in conjunction with The Guernsey Amateur Dancesport Association (GADA). GADA have arranged for world famous ballroom dancers Brian Fortuna and Kristina Rihanoff, who both stared in the last series of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ to come over and entertain the guests on the night.
Both Brian and Kristina joined Strictly Come Dancing in series 6, and proved very popular with the British public. The dancing duo have performed various routines on Strictly, from several group performances to solo routines.

Guernsey MIND is currently working towards providing advocacy and support services for people who experience mental health issues, particularly focusing upon raising awareness, improving services and challenging the stigma of mental health.
Ben Tustin, Director of Marlborough Trust, commented ‘we are delighted to support such an important charity and as a result the local community will benefit directly from the funds raised on the night’ Ben explained ‘we have had some amazing raffle prizes donated, a weeks holiday in the Pyrenees, a Snowshoeing break by Pyrenean-Trails.com, a weeks holiday in a Portugal villa from the management team at Marlborough Trust along with numerous other prizes.
