Success Stories

Buckingham Palace - The Butchers Guild Dinner

“Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal has asked me to write and tell you how much she enjoyed attending your installation as Master of the York Butchers Guild and the Shrove Tuesday Feast. The Princess Royal has asked me to pass on her warmest thanks to the former master and not forgeting the chefs and serving staff for producing such an excellent dinner. It was a memorable evening and Her Royal Highness cannot thank you all enough for inviting her to such a wonderful occasion.”
