Abstract
The donations made at UKHospitality’s annual Christmas lunch reached £59,435, more than doubling previous efforts.

The money was raised for hospitality charity Only A Pavement Away and the Licensed Trade Charity, in association with the Pedalling for Pubs initiative.

Kate Nicholls, chief executive of UKHospitality, said: “I’m delighted and blown away by the enormous generosity shown by everyone who attended the Christmas lunch. Recognising and supporting charities that work within hospitality has been a fixture of the event for many years.

“Only A Pavement Away and the Licensed Trade Charity are excellent charities that are so deserving, and everyone involved should be proud of the work they do. Once again, we were pleased to be able to link up with the Pedalling for Pubs initiative that works closely with both charities. 

“To more than double our previous fundraising efforts just shows the appreciation there is in hospitality for the support these charities and initiatives continue to offer the sector, which is ever more important in the challenging times we find ourselves in.”
