Host a roast in British Beef Week

Ladies in Beef, a group of passionate female beef farmers, are calling on members of the public, restaurant owners, clubs, schools and workplaces to ‘Host a Roast’ during Great British Beef Week 2013 and raise funds for the Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution (R.A.B.I.).

Taking place this year between 21st and 27th April, Great British Beef Week is an annual celebration of Red Tractor quality assured British beef. It is supported both at a local level, with regional events, and nationally with the backing of the nation’s biggest supermarket retailers.

Co-founders of Ladies in Beef, Minette Batters and Jilly Greed are proud to be supporting R.A.B.I., a charity which provides relief for farming families in times of difficulty and relies on the support of public donations and fundraising events.

Minette said: "The ‘Host a Roast’ events can take any format, large or small and organisers can invite anyone from family and friends, to colleagues or community groups. All we ask is that you serve Red Tractor quality assured British beef and that you encourage your guests to make a donation to help R.A.B.I.’s work to support farming families in financial difficulty."
