Forest Holme charity dinner tickets at Compton Acres selling fast

Forest Holme Hospice Charity invites guests to step into Christmas at the Italian Villa in support of the local hospice.

Thursday 10 December is the big day for the annual charity dinner at the award-winning Italian Villa at Compton Acres, Poole. Tickets are selling fast, so the charity is encouraging supporters to book their places soon for the event, after a highly successful first party in 2025.

The evening will see the elegant venue transformed into a sparkling winter wonderland, offering guests a night of glamour, entertainment, and festive cheer in aid of raising vital funds to support local hospice care.

Guests will be welcomed with a glass of fizz on arrival, before enjoying a delicious three-course dinner in the beautiful surroundings of The Italian Villa. After dinner, the celebrations continue with an exciting line-up of entertainment, including a casino, DJ and charity raffle with fabulous prizes to be won.

Tickets are priced at £70 per person, with all proceeds helping to ensure that everyone in the local community affected by a life-limiting illness or bereavement gets the care and support they need, either at home or in its dedicated hospice facility.

A spokesperson for Forest Holme Hospice Charity said: “We’re really looking forward to returning to the beautiful Italian Villa for our Christmas Party after such a fantastic evening last year. It’s a lovely opportunity to get together with friends, family or colleagues, enjoy a festive night out and support Forest Holme at the same time. Whether you book a table of 10 or just a couple of places, everyone is welcome.”
