Springboard Awards for Excellence 2017 raises £11,400

The Springboard Charity raised £11,400 in aid of its programmes and charitable causes at its Awards for Excellence last week.

Attended by just shy of 500 people, the night was hosted by comedian Ian Moore, with 19 awards as well as a standing auction and a raffle, which included a stay at the Landmark London and a seven-course meal cooked by a Springboard alumna in the comfort of their winner's home.

The hospitality industry charity that supports young, unemployed people into work held the awards ceremony at the Novotel London West.

The awards were divided into three categories, each addressing a particular issue the industry faces, aiming to create a solid bedrock for the sector to thrive.
