The Sheraton Grande Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh

An evening of glamour and gambling, with 007!

Our very own Casino Royale night at the Sheraton Grand Hotel in Edinburgh took place in November 2008.

With the support of Barbara Broccoli, producer of the Bond movies, 300 guests enjoyed an authentic Bond style event, playing MMT tables from 6pm until 3am with guests winning an array of fabulous prizes; including "Hearts on Fire Diamonds" donated by Laing the Jeweller, a weekend at the five star Abama golfing resort in Tenerife, a state of the art Pioneer Plasma TV screen donated by James Morrow, a trip to Hong Kong and even an award winning Toyota Prius!

Guests enjoyed a cabaret style black tie dinner, comprising four courses prepared by Michelin star chef Martin Wishart and his team, whilst participating in a silent auction of "must have" autumn season designer handbags and listening to our stunning leading lady and new find, Aret. The evening was hosted by "King of the Jungle" Christopher Biggins and news reader Angela Rippon, with celebrities attending in abundance.  Rugby giant Martin Bayfield conducted the grand auction featuring a £20,000 diamond and the diamond experience to Antwerp with Edinburgh jeweller Michael Laing, "that" Prada dress and "the" Gina shoes worn by Olga Kurylenko in Quantum of Solace, a dream holiday to Reethi Rah in the Maldives, the chance to train with Olympic Gold Medallist Chris Hoy and so much more.

The evening raised an amazing £400,000 with guests being incredibly generous as always.  A huge thank you to everyone who attended and supported MMT so magnificently!
