Over £2,000 Raised For Child Brain Injury Trust

The Leeds office of national law firm Irwin Mitchell and Kings Chambers joined forces to host a Bollywood evening at the West Yorkshire Playhouse to raise money for the Child Brain Injury Trust.

The Child Brain Injury Trust supports children, young people and their families and helps them come to terms with life changing injuries and the uncertainty that their future now brings.

The evening event featured a new musical that retells the greatest love story from the east, Laila Manju, a contemporary musical developed by the creators of Britain’s Got Bhangra.

Carolyn Heaton, an expert serious injury lawyer at Irwin Mitchell’s Leeds office, said:
