On Sunday, 15th September, Wolds Restaurant at Orchard Lodge in Flixton will open its doors to host a special Big Brew event in support of Yorkshire Cancer Research. This event is part of a wider initiative by the charity encouraging communities to come together over a cup of tea and raise funds for cancer research in the region.
A community-driven cause
Andrew and Lucinda Jenkins, the proprietors of Wolds Restaurant and Orchard Lodge, have deep roots in Yorkshire. Their commitment to local causes shines through in this fundraiser, which reflects their dedication to giving back to the community that supports their businesses. Lucinda Jenkins expressed their motivation for hosting the event, stating,
“Yorkshire Cancer Research does very important work to support people in our county. As our businesses have Yorkshire at their heart, we wanted to give something back to YCR, and a Big Brew seemed the perfect event.”
What to expect at the Big Brew
The event promises to be a delightful afternoon filled with homemade treats, live music, and a chance to win some fantastic prizes. Attendees will be treated to a selection of teas and coffees, accompanied by freshly baked cakes and scones, all prepared with the same care and attention to quality that has earned Wolds Restaurant its reputation.
Prizes available at the event include:
- Dinner for two at Wolds Restaurant
- A bottle of champagne generously donated by Betton Wines
- Tickets for a family of four to visit Scarborough’s Sea Life Centre
The event will run from 2 pm to 5 pm, providing a perfect opportunity for the local community to come together, enjoy some great food, and support a worthy cause.
Supporting Yorkshire, from farm to table
Wolds Restaurant, which recently earned 2 AA Rosettes and a Good Food Award in 2023, is renowned for its commitment to sourcing food, drink, and products locally. The focus on local sourcing not only supports nearby producers but also ensures that everything served is of the highest quality. This dedication to local produce extends beyond the restaurant, as Orchard Lodge, the attached B&B, also places a strong emphasis on showcasing the best of what the Yorkshire Coast and the wider region have to offer.
The Big Brew event is not just an opportunity to enjoy delicious food and drink; it is a chance to support an organization that works tirelessly to improve cancer outcomes for people in Yorkshire. By participating in this event, attendees will contribute directly to the vital work of Yorkshire Cancer Research, helping to fund research, support patients, and ultimately save lives.
Make sure to mark your calendar for Sunday, 15th September, and join Andrew and Lucinda at Wolds Restaurant in Flixton for an afternoon of community spirit, delicious food, and, most importantly, support for a cause that affects so many lives.
