The recent Meat Management Industry Awards 2014 dinner, attended by the UK's major industry players, raised a significant sum for this year's chosen charity, The Urology Foundation. The UK meat industry raised a very generous £7,875.00 in total. The three champagne raffle prizes went to John Davidson of Davidsons Retail Butchers, Paul Jarvis of Faccenda and Laura Yandell, daughter of Meat Management publisher, Graham Yandell.
