We danced our (animal) hearts out and once again took home the Best Costume award at Dance for Life!
Dance For Life, the dance competition that brings together over 700 members of the Architecture and Design community for a fabulous night of performance took place on Friday night. This year the theme was ‘circus’ and because we love to be seen as the wildcard of the industry, we danced to This is Me from The Greatest Showman to demonstrate how comfortable we are in our unusual skin and to explore what happens when circus animals say no more!
More importantly we did it all to raise money for ReachOut, a vital online health service for young people that provides support for mental health issues and aims to reduce suicide rates. Our theme was an added reminder on a night raising awareness for mental health, that it’s okay to be different.
Thanks to all your support and donations we managed to raise $8,765, with over $70,000 raised by teams overall. Donations are still open until the end of this week, if you didn’t get a chance or would still like to contribute. Our target this year was to raise $10,000 and we are so close, so any donation big or small would be much appreciated – you can make a donation here.
Indesignlive have also just posted about the night, featuring some fabulous pics – check it out. Thanks again to those who have already generously donated. We couldn’t have done it without you!
