Ernest is a food solidarity network that links restaurants, their customers and local food charities through fundraising and events. We are launching our first campaign in Hackney where participating restaurants will add an optional contribution to each bill. Funds raised will go to local charities Hackney Migrant Centre and Spitalfields Crypt Trust – who offer sustainable solutions to food poverty via advice and training schemes, alongside weekly drop-in meals.

There will be an informal discussion with speakers from both our charities, from one of our restaurants, as well as the founder of Ernest France, Eva Jaurena, followed by a bit of music and some chats.

Please come down and celebrate! Friends, family and anyone you think might be interested most welcome – the more the merrier the merriement 🙂

Love from Team Ernest
