Grace House Ball 2026 in Sunderland

Join us for one of the most anticipated charity events in Sunderland as the Grace House Ball 2026 returns on Friday 2nd October at the Grand Hotel Sunderland.

This special evening brings together our incredible community to raise vital funds supporting disabled children, young people and their families across Sunderland and the North East.

A Meaningful Theme: Welcome to Holland

This year’s ball is inspired by the powerful poem “Welcome to Holland” by Emily Perl Kingsley, a moving reflection on embracing a different journey.

It’s a theme that resonates deeply with many of the families we support. While life may not always follow the path we expect, it can still be filled with strength, beauty and moments of joy.

Supporting Families Across the North East

By attending the Grace House Ball, you are directly supporting the work of Grace House North East — helping us continue to provide:

• Counselling and emotional support
• Social groups and youth activities
• Support for parent carers
• Life-changing experiences for disabled children and young people

Every ticket helps us make a real difference.

We would like to thank our official sponsor, Slater and Gordon Lawyers, for supporting the Grace House Ball 2026 in Sunderland. Their generous contribution helps us continue supporting disabled children, young people and families across the North East.
