St Petroc’s Bistro Charity Lunches 2024
4th November – 15th December 2024
Join us to enjoy a great value set menu whilst supporting wonderful charities in the local area.
We like to dedicate a few weeks of the year to supporting those who need a little more help. During the winter months our charity lunch menus support charities close to our community.
Our Head Chef Dan has created fab three course menus for you to choose from, plus a £2.50 donation per person to a great local cause.
This year, our charity lunches will support three local organisations over a six-week period.
Every two weeks, both the charity and menu will change, giving you the opportunity to support all three causes or choose the one closest to your heart.
Padstow Primary School | 18th November to 1st December 2024
At Padstow School, reading is essential to education and personal development. The recent closure of the town library has created a need for a new school library that will serve as a vibrant centre for learning, fostering cognitive growth and enhancing future success. By raising funds for a thoughtfully designed library, the school aims to create an inviting space that encourages children to explore literature and thrive academically.
Your support will help acquire new furniture and resources, providing a welcoming environment with comfortable seating and a diverse selection of books. The new library will introduce children to various genres, broadening their vocabulary and understanding of the world while inspiring a lifelong love of reading.
