Civic and Charities Luncheon 2024
The Company held its annual Civic and Charities Luncheon on Wed 12 Jun, at Founders’ Hall. The Rt Hon the Lord Mayor Alderman Professor Michael Mainelli was the guest of honour, accompanied by the Lady Mayoress. Alderman Simon Pryke, the Company’s newly assigned Alderman, also attended.
The Company hosted representatives from a number of our well-established charitable beneficiaries: Mulberry University Technical College, London’s Air Ambulance, TaxAid and Tax Help for Older People, City Harvest, and the Hackney Carriage Drivers’ Children’s Magical Taxi Tour.
The Luncheon concluded with an address by the Lord Mayor – informative and entertaining in equal measure – and the presentation of donations from TACT to the Lord Mayor (for the Lord Mayor’s Appeal, the Mansion House Scholarship Scheme, and the Sheriffs’ and Recorder’s Fund) and to representatives of our other beneficiary organisations.
The Luncheon was preceded by a meeting of Court, at Information Technologists’ Hall, during which the Master admitted five new Freemen.
