AFC Bournemouth Chairman Jeff Mostyn will be the special guest at a magic-themed event at the Vitality Stadium to benefit local cancer patients.

Jeff is a Patron of Dorset Cancer Care Foundation (DCCF) which gives financial help to Dorset people facing cancer.

The Red & Black Magic Dinner on April 13 will feature the Guinness World Record breaking magician and Tommy Cooper impersonator, Clive St James Greenaway, and all proceeds from the event will go to the charity.

“I love magic and I love Tommy Cooper so it will be a thrill to see Clive perform his show with some of the magic tricks which were actually owned by Tommy himself,” said Jeff. “You can’t help but gasp when Clive does a trick. It really is seamless and there is lots of comedy. I hear he even suspends someone in the air.”

Clive St James Greenaway is a member of the prestigious Magic Circle and holds two Guinness World Records for being the fastest ever comedian and magician.

As well as performing close-up magic and illusions he will also present his Tommy Cooper tribute act.

The dinner takes place in the Champions Top Floor Restaurant at the Vitality Stadium with tickets priced at £75 including a welcome drink, gourmet three-course meal with half a bottle of wine and chocolates, and are available by phoning DCCF on: 07593 890879 or via the charity’s website: www.dccf.co.uk
