CHARITY champions danced the night away at the Reebok Premier Suite -- and helped Bolton Lads' and Girls' Club to raise more than twice the amount they expected at their spring ball.

Club chiefs were hoping to raise £10,000 from the black tie event on Saturday night, but in the end collected £23,000.

The proceeds will help the Bark Street club -- which moves to a super new building in Spa Road next month -- to provide activities, sports and social events for young people in the town.

Guests at the fun-packed night danced to the sounds of Big J and the Piccolo Chickens.
