Only A Pavement Away’s flagship charity event, “Cook & Dine”, will take place on Tuesday 24 September at the Honourable Artillery Company (HAC).
The annual fundraising lunch, brought to life by The HAC and its inhouse caterer Searcys, is designed to support the charity’s mission to rebuild lives through employment opportunities in the hospitality sector. By bridging the gap between forward-thinking hospitality employers and those looking to rebuild their lives through careers in hospitality. The funds raised go towards supporting those returning work and an independent lifestyle.
As champions of charity events, alongside a firm commitment to environmental, social and governance principles (ESG), The HAC and Searcys was a natural choice for the fundraising event. The lunch will take place in the Prince Consort rooms. “Cook & Dine” is a celebration of the UK hospitality industry’s commitment to inclusion and career growth. This unique event showcases the sector’s exceptional talent, with a delicious menu designed by Michelin-starred chef and Only A Pavement Away Patron, Tom Aikens.
It’s a one-of-a-kind event: guests will have the opportunity to interact with industry leaders, including Searcys MD Paul Jackson, and volunteers from diverse backgrounds as they work back-and front-of-house to prepare, serve and enjoy a world-class dining experience. The event emphasises the charity’s belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to be part of a supportive team and build a rewarding career, regardless of their past circumstances.
Greg Mangham, CEO of Only A Pavement Away says: “We are excited to announce that Searcys and The HAC is hosting our flagship fundraising events – Cook & Dine this year. The event will be at the famous Honourable Artillery Company – a stunning venue. The money raised from this event will be used to support our members. The generosity and support of Searcys has been amazing and has allowed us to grow the event capacity by hosting it for the first time in this exciting venue. We look forward to welcoming everyone at the HAC in September”
Sarah McQueen, Catering and Events Director at HAC says: “We are honoured to be part of Only A Pavement Away for “Cook & Dine” and to host this event at the HAC. Our onsite team alongside our wider colleagues at Searcys are committed to making this one of the biggest fundraisers to date and we’re looking forward to being able to showcase world class hospitality to the guests as we support such an important cause.”
Paul Jackson, Manging Director of Searcys, says: “At Searcys we are proud to be an Employer and Funding Partner of Only A Pavement Away, collaborating with the charity year-round to offer individuals a supportive environment to work in and the stability they need to get their lives back on track. The team at Searcys are passionate about the cause and delighted to be catering for the charity’s flagship fundraising event at the HAC. I am looking forward to seeing our shared ethos and vision come to life at the event in September”.
The charity event is now sold out; however, the organisers are looking for raffle prizes to be won on the day.
