The Red Lion 'Walks with the Stars' 24 June 2010
The Red Lion proudly sponsored the 'Walk with the Stars' event last weekend, which saw nearly 1,000 women walk the 5 mile or 11 mile route from Hemel Hempstead School at midnight to raise money for the Hospice of St Francis.
All kitted out in their bright pink t-shirts flaunting the Red Lion logo, the mass of women raised a remarkable £150,000 for the Berkhamsted Hospice as they sacrificed a night's sleep in favour of entertainment, goodies and a well-deserved breakfast at the finishing line.
Peter Borg-Neal, Chief Executive of Oakman Inns & Restaurants, made an honourable speech on behalf of the Red Lion as the event's main sponsor, and even donned a pink t-shirt for the occasion!
A host of celebrities, including a surprise appearance from Frank Bruno, who made a poignant speech about the Hospice of St Francis, turned up at the event to offer their support, in addition to local entertainers and press members.
As a main sponsor, the Red Lion was commended for its support and involvement in the event and in its assistance in raising money for an admirable local charity, and certainly appreciated being in the celebrity spotlight!
Cocktails and Canapes during all England Games! 24 June 2010
For every four cocktails ordered, receive a complimentary platter of canapes, to celebrate the football-free zone at the Red Lion, Water End, in style.
Our speciality is great food and drink, not football, and we do not have TV screens showing any World Cup games. During England matches we invite all ladies to come and drink cocktails and eat canapes in true Sex and the City style, with Cosmopolitans and Manhattans!
This offer is for all England games.
The Red Lion at Water End Goes Pink! 31 March 2010
On Tuesday 20th April, The Red Lion at Water End, will be turning pink for the morning in aid of The Hospice of St Francis in Berkhamsted.
The Red Lion modern pub and restaurant at Water End will be hosting a pink coffee morning between 9.30 and 11am on Tuesday 20th April as part of its sponsorship of the annual "Walk with the Stars" event that raises much needed funds for the Hospice. The walk is one of the main fundraising events of the year for the Hospice.
Any lady that wishes to sign up for the event, or would like to find out more about the work done by The Hospice of St Francis is invited to the Red Lion for a coffee and a pink cup cake! It will be the perfect anti-dote on this first day back to school after the hectic Easter holidays. You will also get the chance to win a fabulous cake from "Baked by Kylie" who is also donating some of her cup cakes for the occasion. Other cakes are being made by Red Lion Assistant Manager Moira Borg-Neal, Commercial Manager Anna Wood and Marketing Manager Nicky Mendoza-Wilson.
Whilst sipping your coffee at the Red Lion, which is the latest modern pub and restaurant from award winning Oakman Inns, you can sign up for the Walk. Choose between a 5 mile, or a longer 11 mile walk. Both walks start from Hemel Hempstead School on Saturday 19th June and registration costs just £15 which also gives you the opportunity to win some fabulous prizes such as a 2 night stay at Champneys Health Resort, including treatments.
This year's Walk with the Stars midnight walk is in its fourth year and promises to be as fabulous as ever - and just as pink! It doesn't matter if you have joined the walk over the past 3 years or if its your first time, it doesn't matter what your fitness level is, you can walk on your own or as part of a team, the important thing is to take part.
The Red Lion Pink Coffee Morning in aid of The Hospice of St Francis "Walk with the Stars" event takes place from 9.30 - 11am on Tuesday 20th April. The Red Lion, Leighton Buzzard Road, Water End, HP1 3BD. Tel: 01442 213594
