The annual Beit Halochem UK Whisky Tasting Evening, held at The Waterway Pub in Maida Vale on Wednesday, March 27th, was a resounding success. We extend our gratitude to The First Restaurant Group, Mitchell Tillman for once again, hosting our event. Among the 90 attendees was the esteemed comedian Ashley Blaker, who made this a memorable event. Special thanks also go to Dani Smolowitz from the Whisky Palate for supplying the exceptional whisky that added an extra layer of delight to the evening, and to Maishe Weinstein for being the whisky presenter, guiding us through the nuanced flavours and aromas of each dram. Together, we raised an impressive total of £22,00, with highlights including the auction of a rare 1975 Glenlivet Whisky, raising £2,800. These funds will play a crucial role in supporting the needs of the newly injured veterans since October 7th, as we are experiencing a significant influx in requirements for essential equipment and physiotherapy services. There have been over 4,000 new members with this number sadly growing. With your generous contributions, we can ensure that these brave individuals receive the necessary resources and care to facilitate their recovery and rehabilitation process effectively. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who have participated and contributed to this noble cause, as your support makes a tangible difference in the lives of those who have sacrificed for our country.l
