Gary Barlow Helps TLC Raise £500k for Children’s Charities

Gary Barlow headlined a star-studded charity event last week, organised by Taylor Lynn Corporation, raising almost half a million pounds for Child Bereavement UK and Red Sea Pedestrians.

The event, held at Manchester’s Victoria Warehouse, brought together some of the North West’s biggest stars including Gary Neville, who hosted the event and former Coronation Street actress Catherine Tyldesley who performed ‘Baby of Mine’ to the room of distinguished guests.

Kym Marsh, Shayne Ward, Antony Cotton and his partner Peter Eccleston also attended, as well as actor Jason Watkins.

TLC, known for organising some of the highest profile events in the country – including Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright’s wedding – secured Gary Barlow to perform an exclusive set for the VIP crowd ahead of his 2019 Take That tour.

Lucky guests were the recipients of luxury money-can’t-buy prizes in an auction which included a fabulous state-of-the-art Bentley Continental worth over £200,000, five a side with the class of 92, as well as a meet-and-greet with Robbie Williams and lunch with Howard Donald.

Liz Taylor, founder, TLC says: “The months of hard work have paid off. We’re so delighted to have raised this money for these deserving charities. I’m so grateful to all our distinguished guests and suppliers who came together to create such a magical, worthwhile and memorable event.”

Manchester-based pioneering events company owner, Liz Taylor, has helped North West charities raise over £20m since founding her business, TLC, in 1995.

One of the region’s leading event planners, Liz Taylor of the Taylor Lynn Corporation (TLC), is spearheading a charity event this autumn that brings Gary Barlow back to Manchester to give an exclusive performance. This spectacular evening will raise money for Child Bereavement UK and The Red Sea Pedestrians (in support of Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital Charity).  Gary Barlow will headline a charity event, being held on Thursday, September 27, 2018 at Victoria Warehouse, Manchester, and it will be hosted by football legend, Gary Neville.

The black-tie evening is packed with entertainment including the live performance from Gary, plus, organisers have flown the internationally acclaimed Swan Band from France to perform throughout the event. A central attraction on the night will also be the incredible fund-raising auction of ‘money can’t buy prizes’ organised by Selfridges, which will also include lots such as a Bentley Continental, donated by Bentley Manchester.

Liz Taylor, managing director of the Taylor Lynn Corporation commented: “I wanted to create a truly unique night…and this is it. Gary [Barlow] and I have both supported Child Bereavement UK for many years now. He was also made an Patron for the charity in 2016, so when I asked him to help with this event, there was an instant yes!

“We both appreciate the incredible role of the charity in supporting young people and their families in times of loss and bereavement. Their work in the north west, and across the country, has touched many lives, but they need valuable funds to continue this incredible work.”

Liz Taylor added: “We have bold ambitions of what we can raise in one night, but I know Manchester is a bold and ambitious city! For the last 18 months Emma Neville has played an active role in supporting Child Bereavement UK, and as a result Gary Neville has agreed to host the night. Bentley offered an incredible car to auction. Selfridges have provided us with ‘money-can’t-buy’ auction prizes and gift bags. Ann Crossland and family have sponsored our band for the night. Victoria Warehouse donated their venue. The response has been immediate and exceptional. I think with this level of support from the north west business community, the quality of the evening and the generosity of our guests on the night, we can achieve anything!”

The dinner will offer a champagne reception followed by a three-course dinner, entertainment, party and goody bags courtesy of Selfridges. A limited number of VIP tables of 10 people cost £10 000, and additional tables of 10 people cost £5 000. Anyone interested should email: taylor.lynn@tlc-ltd.co.uk

For the first time, events management company the Taylor Lynn Corporation (TLC) has been announced as one of the sponsors of the sell-out Stadium Events & Hospitality Awards 2017. Taking place on June 1, 2017 at Anfield, Liverpool Football Club, the 480 guests will include representatives from stadium venues across the UK and Ireland and they will be treated to an extraordinary evening including a fine dining four-course menu, awards ceremony, entertainment and on-site party until 4am. And with just five tickets remaining, the event is the biggest in its 13-year history.

TLC will be responsible for organising the room décor and entertainment for the event, in a sponsorship deal that not only emphasises the innovative contribution that the company makes to stadium events, with TLC’s clients in the sector including Chelsea FC, UEFA, African Player of the Year Awards and Manchester United FC, but also cements TLC’s position as one of the leading stadium event management companies in the UK.

Commenting on the evening and the sponsorship deal, Liz Taylor, managing director of TLC, said: “We were delighted to have been asked to be a sponsor of this prestigious night. Over the last few years we have worked with various stadiums and football clubs in creating and managing some fantastic events, and have consolidated our position as one of the ‘go to’ events management companies within the sports sector.

“The sponsorship is a natural step forward for us and fits perfectly with our plans for expansion in this area. The nature of stadium events means there’s a lot of pressure to deliver not only a spectacular event, but also on the reputation of the specific club.

“The awards night will be fabulous event for everyone concerned, and I’m particularly pleased to be organising the entertainment and room décor, as both are very close to my heart and are two areas that as company, we excel in every time!!! And in true TLC style, we’ve got a few spectacular surprises awaiting the guests.”

Debbie Rigney, marketing & PR manager for Stadium Experience who organises the awards, said:
“2017 is breaking all previous attendance records. Historically, we have welcomed around 280 guests from stadium venues across the UK & Ireland. Last year, we saw huge growth to 365 guests at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry. To grow this figure by a further this year 30% is just fantastic. We look forward to recognising and celebrating the amazing work of all of these stadium venue teams at Anfield on 1st June.”
