ACT Annual Dinner 2012 – an overview

On 14 November over 1400 guests arrived at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London for the ACT Annual Dinner 2012. Guests enjoyed an evening of fine dining, whilst catching up with colleagues and friends from the treasury and finance community.

Supported by Barclays, the dinner is the biggest event of its kind in London. The ACT, having been granted Royal Charter, were proud to make the occasion even more momentous and celebrate this achievement by displaying the Royal Seal at the entrance to the Great Hall.

The evening began with an opening speech from the host Bob Williams, ACT President and John Winter, Corporate Banking CEO of Barclays.

Following the wonderful meal, Andrew Marr entertained the guests with his humour and anecdotes being appreciated by all. Andrew is a journalist, political commentator, TV presenter, author and presents the BBC Radio 4 Start The Week.

The nominated charity was Get Connected, who are dedicated to the help and support of young people. A silent auction was held using over 100 electronic tablets with the items including a Miro print and a signed Bradley Wiggins photo. A total of £53,000 was raised with the help and support of everybody that attended, 10% was be donated to the ACT Educational Trust.
