Join our eat drink give campaign!

eat drink give invites customers who are drinking or dining with you to support SASH’s work. Since launching in 2015, eat drink give has proved an easy way for local restaurants, cafés and bars to make a very real difference to local, young people facing homelessness.

How it works

There are various ways to be involved and eat drink give can be tailored to suit your business. Some examples are:

• Set up a VAT-free button on your till system and ask your guests if they would like to add a £1 donation onto their bill. – We will supply bill holders and if you wish signage for your tables that tell your guests about our work, that you have chosen to support SASH and that a voluntary £1 donation will be added to their bill.
• Create a special dish or drink and add a nominated amount to the sale price. This is then advertised on your menu or specials board as a ‘SASH donate’ item. Or add an ‘invisible’ item to your menu that customers can order and the proceeds from that item goes to SASH

Whichever way you choose, we will provide full support and supply information for your staff and guests.

Why join in?

We know that businesses are keen to make a positive difference to their local community and eat drink give is a fantastic way for you to do this.

By supporting SASH through eat drink give you will be joining other cafés, bars and restaurants across Yorkshire in helping to give local young people the chance of a better future.

Why it matters

Every year, we support many young people avoid homelessness. People like Katie who suddenly found herself homeless and did not know where to go for help. Thanks to our volunteers, we offer young people a safe place to stay in the home of a volunteer host as well as the support they need to resolve their problems.

“I feel safe and happy for the first time. My host is wonderful. All I ever wanted was a calm home where I could be happy and focus on my education. I now have this and I am so grateful”.

Sophie Thorpe, Marketing Coordinator at Ambiente Tapas in York said:
“The benefits of eat drink give are what initially brought Ambiente on board. Knowing that the funds we helped to raise will contribute towards the ongoing costs of assisting vulnerable young people in the local area is very rewarding.”
