It’s not every day that you get to work alongside the leaders of our community, but when the Hog Roast Tonbridge team were approached by the Mayor of Tunbridge Wells’ team about catering for her annual charity event in town, we of course could not turn down the opportunity.
Nancy Warne, Tunbridge Wells’ Mayor invited folk from the community to join for here Rootin’ Tootin’ Barn Dance held here in town with all proceeds going toward her chosen charity for the year, Wellbeing in the Weald. Wellbeing in the Weald is a small local charity organisation focused on offering support and activities to people living in Cranbrook and the surrounding villages. As the name might suggest, it is a concerted effort to improve the wellbeing of folk that need it in the community. Whether that is through career advice, activities to get people out and improving on their mental health, exercise classes to keep folk healthy, or even just to offer people the opportunity to meet up and connect with others from community. As a local business that considers ourselves part of the community, it is something that we at Hog Roast Tonbridge can get fully behind. So, then, to be chosen as the caterers for the Mayor’s charitable event was a huge honour for us, and one we reckon we did a great job with in our catering!
Held at Oak Tree Barn Weddings, the Rootin’ Tootin’ Barn Dance was expecting around 60 guests. To keep in with the rootin’ tootin’ of it all, the signature Hog Roast Tonbridge hog roast was a perfect choice for dining. It has that rustic feel that goes right along with a barn dance, and certainly provides enough food to help keep the energy levels up for every bit of rootin’ and tootin’ right the way through the night. Our pulled pork was served along with a veggie option of our grilled veg and halloumi skewers, and to accompany our gluten free rolls we had our mixed sweet and regular fries, homemade slaw, and refreshing salads and leaves, too.
It proved to be an excellent event with lots of money raised for Wellbeing in the Weald. Hog Roast Tonbridge would like to extend our thanks once again to the Mayor for having us to cater, and for continuing to help support the local community.
