Giving Back This Festive Season
9 December 2025
As the festive season brings people together across our restaurants and venues, we’re proud to support a campaign that makes a meaningful difference to those who need it most. Throughout December, £1 per table will be added to the bill, with every pound donated directly to one of our chosen charity partners.
This year, we are honoured to support Crisis UK, StreetSmart, Hotel School, Julian House, and Great Ormond Street Hospital. These organisations have a profound impact on communities across the UK. From providing vital support to people experiencing homelessness, to helping young people into hospitality careers, to funding life-changing care for children and their families, each charity plays an important role during a time of year that can be especially challenging.
By dining with us this Christmas, our guests will help contribute to these extraordinary causes, turning moments of celebration into something even more meaningful.
Great Ormond Street Hospital

Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) has been at the forefront of children’s healthcare for over 170 years, providing life-changing treatment and pioneering research for young patients from across the UK and beyond. The charity supports vital services, medical breakthroughs, family accommodation and specialist staff, ensuring that children receive extraordinary care at the moments they need it most.
This festive season, if you dine at Searcys St Pancras Bar and Brasserie, with views of this year’s remarkable 12-metre Christmas tree, Powered by Dreams and created in partnership with Great Ormond Street Hospital, £1 will be added to your table’s bill in support of GOSH Charity. It’s a simple gesture that helps make a meaningful difference, contributing to the hospital’s ongoing work and the families it supports every day.
HOTEL SCHOOL

Hotel School is a remarkable initiative that gives people who have experienced homelessness or other disadvantages the chance to build a lasting career in hospitality. Founded in 2017, the charity runs an intensive 10-week training programme covering every pillar of the industry, from kitchen and service skills to front-of-house, reception and barista training, followed by ongoing mentorship and support into long-term employment. It’s a programme built on dignity, confidence and real opportunity.
This December, if you dine with Searcys at The Gherkin, Searcys Champagne Bar Battersea, or the Barbican Bar & Grill, £1 will be added to your bill and donated to Hotel School.
STREETSMART

Since 1998, StreetSmart has worked quietly but powerfully to support people experiencing homelessness across the UK. Over that time, the charity has raised more than £13 million, funding hundreds of community projects that offer shelter, nutritious meals, medical and mental-health support, education, job training and permanent housing pathways.
Through collective efforts and donations, StreetSmart supports projects that provide essentials such as food, shelter, and professional support for those in need across multiple cities.
This festive season, when you dine with us at The Portrait Restaurant, £1 per table will be added to your bill and donated to StreetSmart.
CRISIS UK

Crisis UK is the UK’s national charity dedicated to ending homelessness. Founded in 1967, the organisation provides practical, one-to-one support across Great Britain, helping people access housing, employment, health services and vital wellbeing support, while also campaigning for long-term change.
When you dine with at 116 Pall Mall this festive season, £1 per table will be added to your bill and donated to Crisis UK. That small contribution joins many others to support essential services, from finding safe homes to offering tailored employment and health assistance, helping individuals rebuild their lives with dignity and stability.
JULIAN HOUSE

Julian House is a long‑standing charity based in Bath that offers vital support to individuals facing homelessness, domestic abuse, addiction, or other serious challenges. They run more than 40 different projects across the South West, including emergency hostels, supported accommodation, domestic‑abuse refuges, outreach services, and training programmes designed to help people regain confidence and build sustainable, independent lives.
Dine at The Pump Room this December offers a chance to make a real difference. With every table, £1 will be added to your bill and donated to Julian House, helping fund their essential work and giving people the support and opportunities they need to rebuild their lives.
