The Bettesteiner Footstompers are returning to Whitfield for their annual foot stomping, thigh slapping charity night in aid of Martha Trust.

The group, as seen on The Alan Titchmarsh Show, will be playing a selection of German tunes at Whitfield Village Hall on Saturday, March 23 from 7.30pm.

Tickets cost £25 each and include a Peach Schnapps on arrival, with all drink and food included.

Steve Griffiths, aka Stefan from The Bettesteiner Footstompers, said: “We all agree that the work Martha Trust does is of immense value to many people, so it is really exciting for us to be able to make our own contribution.

“We try to be as traditional and accurate as possible and have numerous stories of how we have convinced Bavarians and Austrians in the audience that we are actually from Germany.

“Our whole act is built around the concept that we want our audiences to leave the show feeling they have had a really fun evening and, ideally, be hoarse from singing so much!”

Fundraising and events officer Kerry Banks said: “This really is a great event that has been enjoyed by so many over the years.

“We are so lucky to have the ongoing support of The Bettesteiner Footstompers.

"Thank you also to our sponsors Barclays, Rooks Online, Bakkavor /Tilmanstone Salads who all help to make the event a success."

Martha Trust has also teamed up with cricketer John Shepherd for the fourth year running to host a fundraising golf day at Walmer and Kingsdown Golf Club on Friday, April 26.

The cost of this event is £45 per individual and £180 for a team of four or £140 for members.
