Pudsey Chippy supports children’s cancer charity

Two is the Magic Number!

How people in Leeds could eat fish and chips in Pudsey for just £2 to support children’s cancer charity

The offer was in support of Candlelighters, a children’s cancer charity based in Yorkshire, and was available at The Bearded Sailor on Robin Lane on September 7.

All proceeds went to Candlelighters and customers did not need to register, they simply needed to turn up and place their order on the day. The Bearded Sailor owner Alex Papaioannaou said: “We were honoured to host such a memorable event and raise a great amount of money for this brilliant charity. “We offered freshly made ‘skinny sailors’ with chips for just £2 and donated all of the proceeds to the Candlelighters charity.”

The shop’s full menu was still available for anyone wanting to try their other offerings. Mr Papaioannaou added: “It was nice to see everyone there to taste our brilliant fish and chips, while making a difference.”

Candelighters support families facing children’s cancer in Yorkshire, getting involved in various projects which rally behind families in extraordinary circumstances.

Ian Blackwood Hobbs, partnerships executive at Candlelighters, said: “Thank you so much to Alex and the team at The Bearded Sailor for choosing to support Candlelighters with this excellent fundraiser in September. “Without amazing supporters like you, we wouldn’t be able to deliver the services that we offer to families as they go through a challenging childhood cancer journey.” “The money we raise helps us to pay for everything from Chemo ducks to equipment on the wards and clinic. We also fund the jobs of the many people who make children’s cancer treatment in Yorkshire amongst the best in the country.”

The Bearded Sailor was open between 11:30am and 8:00pm on September 7. We will let you know how much they raised in a future publication.
