Charity Ball at The Tower Hotel: Philly’s Ball
Very sadly, Lincoln lost one of its most well-respected and much loved hoteliers in April 2023 when Philippa Creasey lost her battle with cancer. A fundraising ball in her memory was recently organised at The Tower Hotel on Lincoln’s Westgate – which she founded alongside her father Jim – on what would have been Philly’s 60th birthday. The event raised money for St Barnabas Hospice whose care the family describe as ‘incredible, extending her life and providing comfort and dignity.’
The family, including Philly’s son Finn, husband Jez and siblings Caroline, Simon & Edward as well as her best friend Karen are all grateful for the team at The Tower, and to Hallgarten Wine who provided welcome drinks, vocalist Charlotte Porter, saxophonist Alastair Grant, and to Philly’s friends and family who all came together to celebrate her life. The event raised a total of £12, 234.15 for St Barnabas, but further donations are welcome via stbarnabashospice.co.uk.
