The Vacherin London 20 charity spectacular was a core part of the London catering specialist’s 20th anniversary celebrations that brought together team members, family, friends and clients.
More than 100 people took part in walking, running or jogging the 20km course along the River Thames. The event started and finished at St Katharine Docks at one of Vacherin’s client sites, Clarksons, and on completion, everyone’s efforts were rewarded with drinks and barbecue.
In keeping with the ‘20th anniversary’ theme, the Vacherin team set itself the ambitious target of raising £20,000 for Luminary Bakery and Vacherin’s managing director Phil Roker was able to present Alice Williams, the founder of Luminary Bakery, with a cheque at the company’s Taste of Vacherin 20-year anniversary client event.
Phil said: “What a wonderful way to celebrate our 20th anniversary. Giving back has always been part of the Vacherin culture, so to be able to do so whilst marking our significant milestone was so uplifting for all the team.
“Luminary Bakery is an amazing charity and we’re thrilled to continue to support them and their valuable work.
“I must thank all the team that made Vacherin London 20 happen, our client host Clarksons, and our supplier partners who sponsored the event – and of course an extra big thank you to everyone that took part and raised such an incredible amount.”
