This year, we’re dialing up the excitement with a Casino Royale theme, promising a night of glamour, intrigue, and dazzling entertainment. Picture yourself stepping into an opulent world of high rollers and high fashion—where Bond-inspired sophistication meets the thrill of the casino floor. Whether you channel your inner 007 in a tuxedo or embrace red-carpet elegance in a stunning gown, be prepared for an evening of glitz, glamour, and unforgettable moments.
Throughout the night, immerse yourself in the thrill of casino tables, live music, and show-stopping performances, with even more surprises to be revealed! Keep an eye out for our special guests, who will be joining us to make the evening even more spectacular.
Founded in 2016, Côr Seren is a 45-strong choir rooted in community, supporting 2wish. A unique gathering of bereaved women, plus friends and supporters of the charity, their repertoire ranges from show tunes, to country classics, and everything in between.

A dynamic male voice choir, and long-time friends of 2wish, Cor Tadau Trisant consists of singers from around the Miskin, Llantrisant, Pontyclun area.

The theme for this year’s ball is Casino Royale. Think 007 and ‘Bond Girls’. Black Tie and tuxedos are encouraged, along with evening dress, or cocktail attire. The more glamourous, the better!
Spy gadgets are optional.
The Little Ball of Hope begins at 6pm sharp with a decadent drinks reception worthy of Monte Carlo.
The evening concludes at 12:30 am. If you need to arrange taxis, then this can be done at reception, where the front desk will have plenty of knowledge of local taxi companies.
As this is a charity event, we recommend that you bring along some cash with you. This can make things easier when it comes to taking part in things like the raffle and ‘games’. However, there will 2wish team members on hand, available to take card payments.
Cards can also be used when purchasing drinks at the bar.
