Looking after our community
We have an awareness of the opportunities available to us to make a positive impact and spend time looking after the communities around us.
It is our responsibility to serve to the best of our ability. Here’s how we do that:
Charity
We cook nutritious chef-prepared meals and provide cooking ingredients weekly to local homeless shelters including LWS and Helping Hands
We support local schools and charitable organisations across the county, donating raffle prizes for fundraising events.
“I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for your generosity regarding the gift voucher for my sons school fete. It made such a fantastic star prize and I’ve just been informed that the raffle made circa £1500 – which is phenomenal for our small school and will help us so much!”
Warwickshire charity groups receive food donations during December providing festive meals for the vulnerable and elderly.
A thank you letter from the Birmingham Christmas Shelter
“…we wish to send you sincere thanks for your kind donation of various fresh meat products this Christmas.
Our surplus packaging is now in use by charities supporting Ukrainian refugee centres.
Did you spot the Aubrey Allen logo at the weekend? You can find it on the kit of a number of Warwickshire grassroots boys and girls football teams.
Farm Africa is on our calendar every year. The charity football tournament raises money to help farmers in Eastern Africa grow more, sell more and sell for more.
Education
Chefs Adopt a School – The Academy of Culinary Arts.
Education, knowledge sharing and developing the future talent of the industry is of huge importance to the Aubrey’s team. Because of this we have committed at the most senior level to the Chefs Adopt a School Scheme.
Chefs Adopt a School is the Academy of Culinary Arts’ charitable long-term project which, through a ‘hands-on’ approach, focuses on developing an essential understanding of ‘taste’ and furthermore, teaches children about the pleasures of eating, the provenance of ingredients and the processes by which raw materials are transformed into food. As well as providing a solid basis for learning life skills, it is hoped that this will encourage them to experiment for themselves.
Teach First
We have a passion for inspiring the next generation and work closely with Teach First each year to host local schoolchildren for a fun, educational day. Our aim is to inform them about the huge variety of roles available within the sector, as well as showing them real-life examples of routes into the workplace.
This also provides a different group of team members with presentation skills and job development each year. See how we look after our people here
