Managers gunged for charity at the Coach House Inn #Blog

The Coach House Inn’s charity raising attempts took a messy turn last month as seven of their managers got covered in gunge outside their Chester-based venue.

Employees, customers, friends and family were encouraged to donate to Claire House in order to vote on who they wanted to see gunged and those with the most money against their name were condemned.

In total they raised a massive £1,325 for the event.

Trustland Group Managing Director Les Owens, who was confirmed to face the gunge with a surge of donations early on, said; “I’m obviously a popular guy! It’s a bit of fun really, but It’s been great to see all of our customers getting involved and showing their support. To raise so much money for Claire House with this event is just fantastic. Hitting the £45,000 mark may seem a way off yet, but we currently stand at over £21,200 and every day we get that little bit closer.”

Staff have completed various fundraising events such as the Chester half marathon, skydiving, zip lining and Tough Mudder. The Coach House have also implemented an optional round up scheme on bills and have released a special guilt free dessert which sees a portion of proceeds going straight to the charity.

Upon completing the gunge event, The Coach House Inn have set their sights on their next charity fundraising events; a wine tasting evening with a 3 course dinner to be held on the 19th October and a Christmas themed quiz night on the 9th November.
