Celebrating the return of Gordon Ramsay Restaurants’ festive fundraiser in Edinburgh
Gordon Ramsay Restaurants’ venues in Edinburgh have welcomed the return of their ‘GReat Donate’ festive fundraiser, which raises money for Spina Bifida Hydrocephalus (SBH) Scotland.
Charity CEO, Lawrence Cowan took charity mascot, Spiney the Diney, along on Wednesday 30th October for a special campaign launch at Gordon Ramsay Restaurants’ Bread Street Kitchen & Bar on St Andrew’s Square to celebrate the return of the ‘GReat Donate’ fundraiser.
The fundraiser which sees a voluntary £1 donation being added to diner’s bills was first launched during the 2022 festive season, and it will run again this year from the 1st November until the end of December 2024.
The fundraiser has been a great success so far, with generous customers of Gordon Ramsay Street Burger and Bread Street Kitchen & Bar raising a staggering £10,641 last festive season alone.
Gordon Ramsay became SBH Scotland’s first ever Honorary Patron back in 2003 when he met the organisation’s Chairperson, Dr Margo Whiteford CBE, at the Great North Run, and has continued to support the charity for over 20 years.
Gordon Ramsay said;
“Tana and I are delighted to continue our support of SBH Scotland. A charity so dedicated and connected to their community. The teams across Bread Street Kitchen and Street Burger Edinburgh are really proud to get behind the £1 on the bill initiative, helping to raise much needed funds for this incredible charity.”
Gordon Ramsay's Festive Fundraiser Returns to Edinburgh
Gordon Ramsay Restaurant Edinburgh venues have welcomed the return of their ‘GReat Donate’ festive fundraiser, to raise money for specialist charity Spina Bifida Hydrocephalus (SBH) Scotland.
The fundraiser launched during the 2022 festive season, coinciding with the launch of Gordon Ramsay’s Street Burger restaurant in the St James Quarter. They raised an incredible £15,642 as a result which Gordon and Tana Ramsay then generously matched to give the charity an extra special funds boost.
This year, a £1 voluntary donation will be added to diner’s bills at the St Andrew Square restaurant and St James Quarter restaurant until the end of December 2023.
The funds raised will help SBH Scotland provide vital support to over 4,000 children, young people and adults across Scotland who are affected by the lifelong, complex conditions of spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus.
Gordon Ramsay became SBH Scotland’s first ever Honorary Patron back in 2003 when he met the organisation’s Chairperson, Dr Margo Whiteford CBE, at the Great North Run. For 20 years, he has continued to support SBH Scotland through charitable donations and appearances.
A spokesperson from Gordon Ramsay’s Restaurants said:
“SBH Scotland are a fantastic charity which makes a real difference to the lives of so many families across Scotland who are affected by spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus.
“We’re delighted to bring back our Festive Fundraiser to our Bread Street Kitchen & Bar and Street Burger restaurants in Edinburgh and we hope our diners will be happy to make a small gesture this Christmas, that’ll have a big impact on families across Scotland.
