Strictly heads to Essex

Local business owner Richard Willis, from Attract & Engage, will be competing for the glitter ball at The Brentwood Centre on Saturday 9th March 2024 to raise funds for the Essex & Herts Air Ambulance in front of celebrity judges Nadiya Bychkova & Kai Widdrington from the hit BBC show.

Strictly Air Ambulance takes the same format as the show we all love, along with his professional dancer Jody De’Ath, it’s an opportunity to watch Rich shuffle around the dancefloor attempting the Quickstep & Cha Cha Cha. 

However, he understands the real pull for big Strictly fans will be to see Kai & Nadiya perform some exclusive dances live all hosted by Lisa Snowdon & David Whiteley.

Richard said “As a biker, the charity was always close to my late-father’s heart, and so after some coaxing, realised it was a great opportunity to raise vital funds for such a worthy charity. Winning would be great, but my main goal is to embarrass my 12-year-old daughter as much as possible!”

Training began in December and single donations to his page of over £100 will be entered into a raffle for VIP seats at the event itself. Available in the front row as well on VIP tables with bubbles & beers.
