Annapurna Support ‘School of Hard Knocks’

Annapurna Recruitment is working in partnership with the School of Hard Knocks to promote their upcoming event and the opportunity to support a great charity at an exclusive VIP lunch with leading C-level Executives and sporting celebrities.

Thursday 1st December

12.30pm – 5pm

M Restaurant, London

The purpose of the lunch is twofold. Firstly, it is in support of the School of Hard Knocks which is an amazing charity which is in their seventh series on Sky One and supported by Prince Harry, http://schoolofhardknocks.org.uk/. Secondly, this is a wonderful opportunity to bring interesting people together for a great cause in a fantastic venue for a sociable end to 2016.

This is a not for profit event being held at M Restaurant, Victoria Street, London http://mrestaurants.co.uk/victoria/, and promises to be a very enjoyable afternoon for a very good cause. There will be a fantastic opportunity to win a great prize of a safari holiday estimated to be worth around £6,500 which will be given away over lunch to one of the guests which has been donated by one of the SoHK supporters.

All we will ask of the guests is that they buy at least one ticket for the prize draw costing £30.00 with all the funds being given directly to the School of Hard Knocks. This is in addition to the funds already being donated by us from the event.

Places are very limited and are exclusively on a first come, first serve basis. If you are interested in attending, please contact charlie@annapurnait.com
