ANS Group was rubbing shoulders with the stars at a charity event called Notte Bella: Il Finito at Manchester’s Hilton Hotel.

The VAR was headline sponsor of the New Children’s Hospital Appeal event, which was the last leg of the hospital’s fundraising drive, which has raised £20m since its launch in 2006.

It was chaired by Radio One DJ Sara Cox and featured last year’s X Factor finalists JLS and Ruth Lorenzo, along with a host of other famous faces.

Chairman of ANS Group, Scott Fletcher, commented: “It is fantastic to be able to help such a worthwhile charity. As the largest children’s hospital in the UK, the state of the art facilities will have a great and lasting impact not just on our region, but the whole country.

“ANS Group is very proud to be a part of this. We already have established relationships throughout the NHS, working closely with the Trusts to implement new technology and improve patient experience as well as staff efficiency, but this adds a whole new level of engagement and has impacted on us personally.”
