This week our head office team have been raising money for Martin House Children's Hospice over two days.
They started off with a friendly bake off which left the team full of sugar.
Followed by a festive Christmas Jumper Day, the team are really getting into the festive spirit here in Garforth and York!

Martin House is the charity of the year for CGC, their aim is to provide family led care for children with life-shortening conditions. It is a place where children, young people and their families can come to stay from time to time along their journey and find support, rest and practical help.

If you can, please donate to a worthy cause this Christmas; https://www.justgiving.com/page/rachel-williams-1733320402120?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL

⛪We catered for two events at the Sheffield Cathedral, delivering an excellent culinary experience.

⚽York City played three games at home, with some hungry football fanatics being served delicious food.

🎁The lovely Yorkshire Event Centre was a Christmas dream at The Great Yorkshire Christmas Fair! With customers being treated to some fabulous food options to choose from with both cafes open and plenty of food stalls throughout.

Beverley Racecourse and York Races also hosted their first Christmas parties of the season and we can't wait for the rest!

What a 2024 season at York Races!🏇

We're honored to have played such a huge part in making this season a success.

A key highlight for our team was when Her Majesty The Queen Camilla opened the new Bustardthorphe Development which now hosts improved Theakston and Guinness bars as well a 'fast-serve bar', fish and chip shop and cocktail and Pimm's bar!
