Hall & Woodhouse (H&W) will donate 50% of net sales generated across its Managed House estate to charity. In Dorset, teams from all of Hall & Woodhouse’s managed pubs, including The Olive Branch, The Duchess of Cornwall, The Grasshopper, and the Lulworth Cove Inn, will raise money for local causes and organisations delivering charitable work across the south.
Hall & Woodhouse’s Charity Day is expected to result in a donation of at least £70,000, with funds shared equally between each pub’s local chosen charity and YoungMinds, a mental health charity for children and young people.
Anthony Woodhouse, Chairman of Hall & Woodhouse, said: “This year marks our third annual Charity Day. Our purpose at Hall & Woodhouse is to make people’s day and enrich our communities, whether it's through a fabulous guest experience at our pubs, or our involvement with local fundraising. Throughout the year, all of our team participate in various initiatives to raise money for worthy causes. Our Charity Day allows us to contribute even more to the vital projects that make such a difference in our communities.”
To support the success of Hall & Woodhouse’s Charity Day, the team at The Angel will be hosting a Pub quiz alongside its chosen charity, High Mead Farm.
Richard Curtis, Head of Charity at Hall & Woodhouse, said: “I am delighted to see our team get involved in all of our charitable activity and this year’s Charity Day is set to be remarkable. The support we collectively offer to people beyond our immediate business is part of what sets Hall & Woodhouse apart. Giving back and making people’s day is part of who we are. We’re looking forward to a busy Tuesday 12th November and raising lots of money for some incredibly deserving causes.”
H&W is expecting to donate and raise at least £800,000 for charitable causes in 2024, meaning the brewer is close to achieving its goal of raising £1million per annum by 2027.
