apetito | Wiltshire Farm Foods brought together colleagues and their families for a day of celebration, entertainment and charity fundraising at its recent Summer Fun Day, raising £2,500 for Wiltshire-based charity, Beyond Dementia.

The event, held at Hilperton Village Hall, created a lively, family-friendly atmosphere with a wide range of activities and entertainment for all ages throughout the day.

Attendees enjoyed live music from local band Be Like Will, a dance lesson from Ceroc, a performance from Hyrne Dziewuchy and activities run by Active Trowbridge and Trowbridge Wanderers Football Club. There was also plenty to keep younger visitors involved, including donkey rides from Kelly’s Donkeys, face painting from Steph Hair and Makeup and a fancy-dress competition.

From a tombola and an arts and crafts space to a BBQ and food served from the company’s ‘Appetiser’ food van, apetito colleagues from across the business also worked to put on a variety of enjoyable stalls, coming together to connect and support an important cause.

The money raised will help Beyond Dementia continue making a real difference for people living with dementia, and their families, across Wiltshire.

Ian Stone, CEO at apetito | Wiltshire Farm Foods, said:

“Events like this one are hugely important to us at apetito, bringing people together and creating a sense of community across the business. It was brilliant to see colleagues and their families enjoying their day, while also supporting an important, local charity that has been close to our business for over ten years.

“We’re proud of everyone involved in organising and contributing to such a successful event. The funds raised will help Beyond Dementia continue their vital work and will be matched by our business through our annual partnership donation.

“This is a brilliant example of what we can achieve when we come together, both enhancing the health and wellbeing of our team and driving social value into our local community.”
