Church House Conference Centre Serves a Dream Tea hurch House Conference Centre hosted their annual Tea Party, now a tradition at the Westminster venue, which this year had extra significance as they participated in Dreams Tea Week. This is a national fundraising campaign held by Dreams Come True to help realise the dreams of ill children. C Church House’s clients were in for a treat as traditional English tea was served together with summer garden inspired cakes and deserts. As well as enjoying the delicacies made by their catering partner, Harbour & Jones, guests were also able to decorate their own cupcakes with the help of the caterer’s Head Chef, who showed them some tricks of the trade. The afternoon tea also supported the venue’s chosen charity, Dreams Come True, and guests took part in all sorts of fundraising competitions including predicting the weight of a handmade fruit cake to guessing the number of sweets in the jar. In addition there was an opportunity to win afternoon tea at the Ham Yard Hotel. Church House then matched every pound raised during the event enabling them to donate over £300 to the charity. Church House General Manager, Robin Parker, commented, “Our annual Tea Party was a great success, and was made even more special Dream Tea in support of Dreams Come True. through our support of Dreams Tea Week. Events like this not only give us the opportunity to showcase our event spaces but also the culinary expertise of Harbour & Jones. This event is one of many we will be holding to support Dreams Come True over the coming months and we are delighted so many people donated towards such a worthwhile cause.” Church House Conference Centre is an AIM Gold accredited venue which offers 19 event spaces accommodating between 2 and 664 guests for a wide variety of events including meetings, conferences, awards ceremonies, gala dinners and receptions.
