40. CITYWIDE BANQUET RAISES OVER £1/2 MILLION

Manchester came together for the first city-wide banquet which raised over £527,000 for the Tim Bacon Foundation which is generously supporting The Christie’s proton beam therapy project. Tim, a former Christie patient who sadly passed away in 2016, was the co-founder of the Living Ventures empire with current CEO Jeremy Roberts. After a year of planning, more than 1,000 diners descended on eight Living Ventures restaurants including Manchester House, Australasia, Artisan, and GUSTO, for the amazing Dream the Impossible Dream charity event.
