On Friday 8th December, nine sites across the country, including Edinburgh, will be donating all profits from their festive afternoon tea to FFTH, which will help address the critical issue of food insecurity faced by children in the UK.

Taking place at Edinburgh, Chelsea, Richmond, Harrogate, Norwich, Cardiff, Marlow, Cheltenham and Brighton locations the profits will be donated to help achieve TCFF’s mission of creating ‘a world free from hunger, harm, and hurt’. Through similar schemes, TCFF has distributed an outstanding 2,000,000 meals across the UK and Brazil to struggling families and children through their network of school and charity partners across the UK. TCFF aims to deliver an impressive 2,500,000 meals by the end of 2023.

For Afternoon Tea aficionados, The Ivy Festive Afternoon Tea is not to be missed. Served from 3pm - 5pm, the beautifully presented three-tier afternoon tea (priced from £29.95 pp) features decadent finger sandwiches, such as The Ivy 1917 Cure smoked salmon and cream cheese finger sandwich; Grilled chicken and truffle mayonnaise brioche roll; and Pickled cucumber, courgette and basil double decker. Additionally, sweet tooths can further enjoy freshly baked fruit scones with clotted cream, fresh strawberries and strawberry reserve. Alongside, there will be a selection of exquisite cakes and tarts, such as a White chocolate polar bear and Mince pie parcel to an Orange and cherry eclair and Pistachio, almond and cherry Battenberg. Those feeling merry can also pair the afternoon tea with a glass of Nyetimber Classic Cuvee MV at an additional price of £10.00 pp.
