St Austell Brewery To Raise Funds For The RNLI

St Austell Brewery is hosting a series of supper clubs in a selection of its coastal managed pubs, to support and raise funds for the RNLI.

With sites located in some of the most picturesque locations by the sea, St Austell Brewery has long worked with and supported the RNLI and its lifesaving efforts.

The special supper clubs will raise funds for the RNLI during its 200th anniversary year, with the evenings celebrating local seafood. The menu will be served family-style, with guests dining together across larger tables to enjoy great food, drink, and conversation.

Guests can expect a menu with paired drinks options for each course, including a fruits de mer sharing platter brimming with lobster, crab claws, oysters and more. Canapés will be served on arrival and the supper will round off with a warm chocolate tart with blood orange sorbet, paired with St Austell Brewery’s Mena Dhu stout or port.

There will also be tipples available from Camel Valley and Salcombe Gin along with Lyme Bay Winery and seafood from fish supplier Matthew Stevens.

Laura McKay, St Austell Brewery’s Marketing and Communications Director said:

“The RNLI is an integral part of living in around the coast in the South West, and their lifesaving efforts are vital."

“What better way to support the volunteers and charity than by curating a seafood themed supper club in our pubs, with £12 from every ticket donated directly to the lifesaving cause. We can’t wait to spend an evening celebrating the efforts of the RNLI to mark its 200th anniversary year.”

Dave Nicoll, Fundraising and Partnership Lead for the RNLI, added:

“To have the work of the RNLI celebrated at a special event such as this is a fantastic boost to our volunteers and everyone involved in having kept the charity alive for two centuries, saving lives at sea. We’re thrilled that St Austell Brewery are helping us fundraise with this event through ticket sales.”
