The Golden Hearts Gala Dinner, held at Hogan Lovells in London, saw people from across the sector come together to help raise funds for those impacted by the war in the Ukraine. Funds raised will help provide medical equipment such as tourniquets and basic medical training for those on the frontline.
The event saw a panel of BM’s Ukrainian team members invited to tell their stories and share their hopes for the future, as well as a charity auction. The menu on the night was overseen by Adam Byatt, chef-patron of Michelin-starred Trinity in Clapham and a consultant chef for BM.
Guests were served cured salmon with heritage beetroots, cucumber, keta and buttermilk; fillet of Cumbrian beef with Roscoff onion, lovage emulsion, pommes Anna and truffled bone marrow jus; and Islands Chocolate marquise with figs and fig leaf oil.
Angus Brydon, managing director of BM, said: “The conflict in Ukraine is ongoing, mustn’t forget, we are doing what we can to continue supporting those affected. Through our efforts, we can make a difference in so many lives.
“The funds we raised will once again provide vital medical equipment and training for the citizens of Ukraine. One year on from our last event, which raised in excess of £40,000, we have our own Ukraine family members and this really means so much more to all of us."
