Starting in January 2018, the three-year contract will see the charity cater for a range of events from drinks receptions and canapés to food stations and fine dining, for up to 900 guests.
Proving services across its portfolio, including the City of London Corporation and seven other flexible event spaces, Clink Events will provide bespoke menus in a variety of styles and budgets, as briefed by Guildhall.
Chris Moore, chief executive of The Clink Charity, said: “We are thrilled that Clink Events has been appointed by Guildhall as an eligible caterer. To be recognised by a renowned historical venue, such as Guildhall, and to be listed alongside other well-established caterers is an outstanding achievement for the Clink Events team.
“By working alongside like-minded charities such as Centrepoint, the UK’s leading young homeless charity, Clink Events is providing second chances to those that want and deserve one, and our partnership with Guildhall will contribute to the growth of the Clink Events service. We look forward to providing a professional service and delicious food to the events at Guildhall.”
Head of responsible business at the City of London Corporation, Noa Burger, said: “We are very excited about our partnership with the Clink charity. This linkup will provide a real opportunity for prisoners to learn new skills in the catering business, develop their expertise and support them to resettle into the community.
“We want to encourage and support the capital’s charities and responsible businesses, to help them change the lives of hundreds of thousands of Londoners. It’s a brilliant way to demonstrate your organisation’s values, engage your staff and make a real difference.”
100% of the profits made from Clink Events catering at Guildhall events will go towards the charity’s training projects.
