The Legally Ballroom finale was held on 21st November, hosted by our corporate partner, law firm Hogan Lovells. 22 volunteers took to the stage including our very own Corporate Partnerships Manager Margaret Ruttle. The dancing duos had ten weeks to prepare, and all attended professional ballroom dancing lessons to perfect their moves.
The theme of the evening was a Winter Ball, and all attendees were dressed to impress, including the judge of the evening none other than BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing’s Shirley Ballas together with two former Hogan Lovells Legally Ballroom winners. Performing the quick step, waltz, samba, and jive all the volunteers gave a fantastic effort – it was apparent that all the practice had paid off! Ultimately one winner had to be crowned the Legally Ballroom 8 champion and this went to Paps Andrews and Daniel Yip.
