The annual Hospitality Action Christmas Online Auction has raised a record breaking £5,000.
Now in its thirteenth year, the charity’s Christmas online auction proved popular with supporters once again as they took part in a friendly bidding war for the perfect Christmas gifts.
Lots on offer this December included a one-of-a-kind cake which saw Bidvest Foodservice join forces with award-winning patisserie chef, Thomas Leatherbarrow, to handcraft a show-stopping, artisan Christmas cake, made with scrumptious, luxury ingredients.
This was in addition to a three course lunchtime meal for two people at The River Cafe in London, a bottle of Champagne, selection of meze and shisha at Baku Bistro in Mayfair and an overnight stay with dinner and breakfast at The Coach House at Middleton Lodge, North Yorkshire.
All funds raised from the auction go to support those in need through the work of Hospitality Action, the trade charity offering a crucial lifeline to people of all ages, working and retired, from the hospitality industry – something that’s especially important at this time of year.
