Here at Dexter's we work closely with some fantastic local charities as we know just how far that little bit can go. But then there are always those bigger, national causes that forever will mean so much to us....and right at up there at the front of that list is anything we can do to support our Armed Forces.
Every single one of us owes this incredible group of men and women so much. Throughout our history it is their sacrifice that has enabled us each to have the lives we lead, and in this turbulent time when Bears and Pandas are shifting the board around, it is such an honour to know that we have the best there is on our side.
So we have been looking for a long time to find the perfect way we could show our appreciation, and also support them as best we can. It turns out that one of our lovely regulars, Matthew Flood and his company Vestey are THE principle manufacturer of Army Rations that keep our troops on the move....
Now this isn't the porridge and tinned beans you might expect...these are balanced and nutritious meals that actually taste AMAZING...and what's more...there's no washing up, and the theatre of is it is amazing! Thanks to the wonders of chemistry you can cook these yourself using nothing but a little tablet and a bit of water!
With some pretty damn amazing generosity Matt has donated a load of these 3 course meals...why you might ask? Because we are doing a fundraising Dinner all in aid of Help For Heroes!
Hosted at the newly developed Knutsford Market Hall, on Saturday November 8th we are holding a dinner where can get to live like a soldier, dine like a marine, and party like a pilot!
Each of you will receive a 3 course meal that you can prepare yourself at the table, eat with the obligatory SPORK, as well as drink like a sailor as we will be hosting a bar at the event too....the menus themselves will be YOURS TO CHOOSE FROM (accommodating for vegetarians too) with some amazing comfort food dishes like from curry to casserole, pasta to pilaf, stews to stroganoffs...and each accompanied with some tantalising appetisers, and rib tickling desserts.
All the money from your ticket will be going straight to Help For Heroes, who do amazing work in supporting serving military, as well as veterans in their times of need.
Tickets are limited to how many we can physically fit in...so be quick...this one will not last and will always mean a lot...
Held on Saturday November 8th from 7pm...one sitting, one chance, every bit of thanks!
