A gala ball has raised hundreds of pounds for a project which is helping to transform the lives of young people in Weston.
Revealed Projects put on a three-course meal with entertainment and an auction at the Winter Gardens.
The initiative helps children and teenagers with issues such as bullying, online safety, abuse, body image, self-esteem and establishing healthy relationships.
