Mandy West, of organisers the Malton & Norton community events team, said: “What a fantastic evening, it was wonderful to see everyone. The marquee looked stunning, so lovely with all the fairy lights and flowers.
“We have so many inspirational people in our community, and this was their night to celebrate.
“All the finalists were winners in my eyes - it was so hard for the judging panel to pick the winners.
“Thank you to all the sponsors who support the event every year - you’re amazing, we wouldn’t be able to keep doing it every year without your help.”
With proceeds from the charity raffle and auction, the night raised £2400 for Candlelighters and Sight Support Ryedale.
