With incredible support from the staff at Mercure Hull Grange Park, the teams worked tirelessly to produce a stunning three-course meal and an incredible atmosphere front of house for their guests.

All food and service was provided by HSBC and Sargent Electrical staff, who swapped their day jobs for chef whites and aprons, in the name of charity. Over 70 guests attended and thoroughly enjoyed their evening.
