DORCHESTER: East meets West for festival fundraiser

AN Asian theme night will take place at a Dorchester restaurant to raise money for the town’s one world multi-cultural festival.

The interior and exterior of the Spice Centre restaurant, High Street, Dorchester, will be transformed to bring a little bit of Eastern charm to the county town.

The evening will include Bollywood films, bellydancing, live Bangladesh music and a raffle along with Asian food for just £15 per person.

The event is to raise funds to support the One World (multi cultural) Festival, which is taking place on August 8th at the Kings Road Playing Field, Dorchester from 11am – 4pm.

Money raised form the event will also go to support other charities including the Children of Fiji and The Grace Secondary School.

Tickets for the Asian night, which will take place on Sunday, August 1st at 8pm, are limited and are selling fast.

They can be purchased from The Spice Centre Restaurant in High West Street, or from Dorset Community Action at The Barracks, Bridport Road.
