Eat and Drink for a worthy cause

Enjoying a delicious home-made meal made from local produce at a local award winning dining pub could be seen as an extravagant luxury. Not if you dine at the Queen's Head in Bramfield. So sit back, relax and enjoy a delicious meal knowing that you are doing it for one of four very different but worthy causes.

1. HALESWORTH COMMUNITY FIRST RESPONDERS

Since July 2009 the Queen's Head has highlighted one main course on the menu. For every sale of this dish we donate 20p to the Halesworth Community First Responders Scheme. A donation box is also available for customers to make additional donations if they wish to.
Community First Responders (CFR) are a group of volunteers living in the community who undergo first aid training from the ambulance service and agree to be on call from the ambulance control to care for patients until the ambulance arrives. CFR's receive no pay and all equipment such as defibrillators is paid for by money raised locally in the community.

Total raised in 2010 - £584

2. WATER AID

Every time a customer asks for a glass or jug of tap water they are invited to make a small donation to WaterAid to help the 1.1 billion people throughout the world who live without safe water. There is absolutely no obligation or pressure. Visit www.wateraid.org

Total raised in 2010 - £477

3. THE DOGS TRUST

For a number of years a second hand bookshelf has been in the lobby of the Queen's Head. Pop a donation into the charity box when you take a book.
Any unwanted books are gratefully received to keep the bookshelves full. Visit www.dogstrust.org.uk

Total raised in 2010 - £280

4. CHRISTMAS PRIZE DRAW

Every year the Queen's Head holds a Christmas Prize Draw for a hamper of home-made and local goodies.
In 2010 the proceeds went to the East Anglian Air Ambulance which has now become the Queen's Head chosen charity for 2011.

Total raised in 2010 - £96

Grand Total raised in 2010 - £1,437

A big "Thank You" goes to all those who contributed in some way
to our fund-raising efforts in 2010.

Pop into the Queen's Head and help to make a difference in 2011.
