Aberdeen Hotel Gives Percentage of Bar Proceeds to Charities

A North-east hotel is giving party-goers a chance to pay a good deed while having a good time, donating a percentage of bar takings to charities that host events there.

Mercure Aberdeen Ardoe House Hotel and Spa is offering licensed charities up to 5% back on cash bar sales for events booked in its newly refurbished ballroom and Ogsten Suite.

The actual percentage of the amount the charity will take home on the night will be calculated at the end of the evening, and based on total money spent. Any cash bar sales in excess of £10,000 will automatically get the maximum 5% return.

John Shevlin, General Manager of Ardoe House, said: “We are happy to give back to organisations that give so much. There is a big community spirit within Aberdeen, and we want to be a part of that.”

Ardoe House is extending this offer to registered charities until April 2012. Some well-known organisations have already signed on to take part in this offer, including VSA and the Scottish Spina Bifida Association, which hosted an event featuring Dragon’s Den star Duncan Bannatyne earlier this month.
