Charity support
Tommy's
Saving babies' lives
Tommy’s is the largest UK charity researching the causes and prevention of pregnancy complications, miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth.
Tommy’s was founded in 1992 when two obstetricians at St Thomas’ Hospital in London - Dr Ian Fergusson and Dr Anthony Kenney - couldn't and wouldn't accept the lack of answers surrounding premature birth any longer. Together with one of their patients, Lucy Nelson, they decided to start a campaign raising money for pregnancy research projects. The campaign grew into Tommy’s charity.
From expert researchers and specialist midwives to information writers and fundraisers, Tommy's core purpose is to save babies’ lives and make pregnancy and birth safe for everyone.

The Burnt Chef Project
We're thrilled to continue to support The Burnt Chef Project!
Launched in May 2019 The Burnt Chef Project was setup with the sole intention of eradicating the mental health stigma within hospitality. Hospitality staff should be able to discuss the state of their mental health and gain support from their peers and employers. It's important that although mental health can't be seen it is regularly discussed and policies reviewed.
Together we can burn away mental health stigma within hospitality once and for all.
