Thank you to all that came to our feast in aid of Nightingales UK on Saturday. We are thrilled to announce that we raised £5593 for the cause.
We donated all of the ticket sales (minus the cost of one of our musicians) to them. We wouldn't have been able to do that without the incredible generosity of our staff who worked completely for free in the preparation and on the night itself. Having three fabulous Ukrainians within our team who had to flee their home due to the war, we all wanted to do something to contribute to supporting their homeland and their family and friends that are still there. Nightingales UK sends much needed medical aid and response vehicles to Ukraine. We are proud to have been able to support in some way.
Thanks also to Jessica Leigh Music who donated her fee for singing to Nightingales. Also to Cornish Country Cordials who donated a gorgeous cordial for the welcome drink, and to The Larder Yelverton for donating two types of delicious cheese for the cheese course.
