Some kids spend more time in hospital than in school. @RaysofSunshine grants them a wish they get to keep forever. On 1 July, 500 people are showing up at The Peninsula London for The Grand Prix Ball, with Pixie Lott headlining and Kevin Magnussen in the room, to help fund the next ones. We are proud to be the Official Title partner of the 2026 edition.
