What a night!
On Saturday 3 October, SE3 Projects was proud to be one of the main sponsors of The Boathouse Youth Party Night 2026 at the Winter Gardens, Blackpool. It really was a Party with a Purpose.
The evening started with a drinks reception, then a three-course dinner, live entertainment, games and auctions, followed by late-night pizza and a DJ playing 90s and Ibiza classics. We were especially pleased to bring guests the late-night pizza, which kept everyone fuelled for the dancefloor well into the early hours.
Most importantly, the night was all about The Boathouse Youth, Blackpool’s leading youth charity. Their mission is simple but powerful: enabling young people to lead their best lives.
The Boathouse Youth provides fully funded opportunities for children, young people and families across Blackpool and the Fylde Coast. These range from youth sessions where young people make friends, learn new skills and have fun, to group work that builds confidence and self-esteem, including support for those with additional needs. They also run a Young Leaders Academy and summer camps, and provide 250–300 places a day during the school holidays through their holiday activity and food programme.
With around 8,000 children and young people living in poverty right on our doorstep, that work has never mattered more. The charity’s impact has been widely recognised, including a Centre for Social Justice Award in 2024. In January 2025 it opened a new centre in Fleetwood.
Every penny raised on the night supports young people aged 5–25 across Blackpool and the Fylde Coast.
A huge thank you to everyone who came, bid, danced and gave so generously. Thanks also to the Winter Gardens team, our entertainers, our fellow sponsors and the brilliant people at The Boathouse Youth who do such important work all year round.
Supporting our local community matters to us at SE3 Projects, and we are proud to support such a fantastic cause.
