Some background...

Just before Christmas 2016, a letter appeared on the BBC website written by a doctor working for the International Red Cross in Aleppo. This letter made us want to do something. We had an idea to raise money for the International Red Cross and help the terrible situation faced by families not unlike our own.

So we emailed a handful a friends and within 24 hours we had a venue and the beginnings of a grand plan. Wylam Brewery and a host of award-winning chefs agreed to get involved in a fundraising event of some kind. Every day more like-minded friends and associates are offering their support. This is not an ordinary charity event: it’s a show-case of the most innovative talents in the North East coming together to put on a unique night that is doing something good.

Thank you for doing something. Because we believe that one good deed leads to another and another…
