[30/03/25]
Last Night, Clarence House was filled with laughter, good vibes and great tunes 🎶
Thank you Purpura Music and for everyone who came along to show their support for the carnival.
The Royal Ball, unlike the Royal disco is judged via nominations from members of our community, it should be no surprise that our 2025 royal family are very familiar faces 😊
👑 King ~ Nigel Osmond
Not only was Nigel our local postie and during covid times made a lot of people smile with his dressing up whilst doing his rounds he was the talk of the town, but he also knows how to cheer people up.
He then went onto working at the Football Club and he has done so much work turning the club around, there is no doubt that Nigel has put the junior section in a far stronger position and his biggest legacy is how he has helped firmly establish the Junior section in the heart of both the club and the community. Nigel has made such a positive difference to the PTFC
👑 Queen ~ Tam Louise
Always putting so much effort into raising money for local community charities, not only is she lovely she is always supporting anyone she can, constantly reaching out to help people where ever she can and puts others before herself – Tam has a heart of gold and is always there when needed, Tam and her family are the heart of Portishead.
Tam has a pure passion for serving her community since a young age and continues to work hard all the time and never does it without a smile – nothing knocks this girl down!!
👑 Lady in Waiting ~ Rachel Osmond
Rachel does so much for the youngsters of Portishead, helping them to play football and has put so much effort into making the football club a success, she is hard working and never gives up giving everyone a chance to be a part of a team
[15/03/25] What a fabulous evening we had at the Royal Disco! The music, the lights, the dancing—it was pure magic from start to finish. A huge thank you to everyone who came and made it such a special night!

👸 Princess: Eloise Harris
🌸 Flower Princess: Mossy-Bee Roach
🫅 Prince: Orson Roach
And our selected Attendees
