London, UK. 9th April 2025 – It is a well known fact that the North, South, East and West cannot agree on what is the perfect fish to have as part of your chippy tea, cod, haddock or plaice, and whether curry sauce, mushy peas or gravy are a delight or a travesty but one thing everyone agrees on is that Fish and Chips is simply the best family meal ever.
 
On 6th June 2025, the nation will come together to celebrate their favourite dish as National Fish & Chip Day is back, marking its 10th anniversary.
 
Held annually, this special day acknowledges the iconic status of fish and chips. After beginning as a small initiative, the event has now grown into the UK’s biggest food awareness day with an estimated  93 million people seeing, hearing and reading about the day in 2024. 
As part of the celebrations, organisers are encouraging the public to find their region’s fish and chip champions, sharing their stories from multi-generational chippies keeping traditions alive, to fryer-side romances to young fish fryers through a nationwide survey.

AD 4nXcBI58rqyD7Zz3eZfOdcVM6aoyLt
National Fish and Chip Day recognises and thanks everyone involved in bringing this family favourite to the centre of every community; from the fishers who go out in all weathers to catch the delicious fish, and the farmers who grow and harvest the perfect potatoes and peas, to the fish and chip shops and restaurants, home chefs and celebrity chefs, who take those fresh ingredients and create this versatile dish. 
Gary Lewis, President of The National Edible Oil Distributors’ Association, which runs the event, reflected on the success of the day saying “This year marks a significant milestone for National Fish and Chip Day as we celebrate its 10th anniversary! Over the past decade, we’ve seen incredible support from everyone involved with fish and chips across the UK, and we’re thrilled to continue honouring this iconic British dish. Fish and chip shops are at the heart of our communities, and getting involved in this celebration is a fantastic opportunity to showcase the quality and tradition of this family favourite.  We encourage all shops to take part and share in the pride and joy that National Fish and Chip Day represents.”

London, UK, March 27th 2025- In a landmark move for London’s Jewish community, Uber Eats has partnered with Sabeny.com, the leading online kosher grocery store, to offer the first-ever complete Passover shopping experience available instantly through a major delivery platform. As a kosher online-only store, Sabeny.com already delivers kosher groceries across London year-round, but this partnership brings the full Pesach range to Uber Eats, offering even faster, on-demand access for Jewish families across the capital.

In recent months, many Jewish Londoners have expressed concerns about personal safety and rising antisemitic incidents since October 7. For some, traditional in-person kosher shopping has become stressful or inaccessible. This partnership responds directly to those concerns, offering a safe, reliable alternative that lets customers order everything they need for Passover or any time of year, from the comfort and security of home. The collaboration between Uber Eats and Sabeny.com ensures the Jewish community can prepare for Passover hassle-free, with guaranteed certified kosher products delivered with ease.

A Milestone for Kosher E-Commerce

While online kosher grocery shopping has existed for years, Sabeny.com has learned that many Jewish Londoners simply didn’t know reliable options like theirs were available. Partnering with Uber Eats brings Sabeny.com to a broader audience through a platform people already know and trust, making it easier than ever to confidently shop for kosher groceries online.

“This partnership is a game-changer,” said Sol Gross, Director of Sabeny.com. “For the first time, Jewish families in London can rely on Uber Eats to bring a full range of kosher Passover products straight to their doors. No more last-minute rushes, we’re making Pesach shopping simple, efficient, and stress-free.”

Bringing Kosher Into the Digital Age

With the Jewish community increasingly seeking digital solutions for their shopping needs, this partnership modernises kosher grocery shopping. Whether stocking up for a large family Seder or fulfilling everyday needs from an online kosher supermarket, Uber Eats and Sabeny.com are making it easier than ever to keep traditions alive with modern convenience.

LONDON, UK. March 7th, 2025National Fish and Chip Day, a celebration of the UK’s most beloved dish, is returning in 2025 for its 10th anniversary.
Organised by the The National Edible Oil Distributors’ Association (NEODA), on Friday 6th June the nation will come together to honour not just the iconic pairing of crispy battered fish and golden chips, but also the hardworking individuals who make it all possible—from fishermen and farmers to the dedicated owners of fish and chip shops across the country.
 
Gary Lewis, President of NEODA said: “Fish and chips have been a staple of British cuisine for well over a century, embodying the heart and soul of the nation’s culinary heritage. This humble yet hearty dish, traditionally served with mushy peas and a sprinkle of salt and vinegar, has become a symbol of comfort and community. Whether enjoyed by the seaside or at the local chippy, fish and chips continue to be the go-to meal for millions of Britons.”
 
National Fish and Chip Day also celebrates the entire supply chain that brings the dish together, including the fishermen who catch the fish, the farmers who cultivate the potatoes needed to make the chips and the fish and chip shop owners who bring these ingredients together to create the dish with love and care.
Gary Lewis added: “The enduring popularity of fish and chips lies in its simplicity and quality. Freshly caught fish, coated in a light, golden batter and fried to perfection, paired with thick-cut, fluffy chips, has a universal appeal that transcends generations. 
“Add to that the quintessential sides—creamy mushy peas and the much-loved crunchy bits of batter, known affectionately as “scraps” or “bits”—and it’s easy to see why this dish has remained a firm favourite for so long.”
This National Fish and Chip Day on 6th June, fish and chip shops across the UK will be offering special deals and events to mark the occasion.
Fish and chip fans are being encouraged to share their National Fish and Chip Day celebrations on social media using the hashtag #NationalFishAndChipDay.

EDINBURGH, UK. February 13th, 2025 – Left Field Kombucha, the premium craft kombucha brand, is set to make an impression in the growing function drinks category with its exciting new product release and refreshed brand presence. Launching exclusively to trade and wholesale partners, the new range of flavoured fermented teas promises to offer a fresh, vibrant alternative in the rapidly expanding kombucha market. The four teas use a base of fermented green tea with added natural flavourings. The lightly effervescent drinks come in slim 250ml cans and include; Rose & Elderflower, Hops & Sea Salt, Ginger, and Sicilian Lemon & Mint. 

In addition to the product launch, Left Field Kombucha has unveiled a revamped website, providing an enhanced user experience for consumers. This showcases, amongst other things, the full production of how Left Field is craft-brewed, product information about their award-winning ‘Just Tea’ range, a referral rewards scheme, and refreshed brand photography. 

The brand has also integrated a new trade ordering portal, powered by Turis, a Danish company known for offering innovative and efficient trade solutions. This partnership will streamline the ordering process for trade and wholesalers, and provide greater tracking, previous ordering information, and access to a suite of brand assets.

As part of the relaunch, Left Field Kombucha is proud to announce its inclusion in the BBC Good Food 2025 Best Kombucha list, for the fourth year in a row. A prestigious recognition of the brand’s commitment to quality and innovation in the kombucha space.

Stewart Hainey, Head Brewer at Left Field Kombucha, commented: “I’m incredibly excited to share the new products. Since joining, I’ve been experimenting with our teas and getting the balance of something delicately flavoured, interesting, but not overpowering. The SCOBY we use was created in house to remove a lot of the vinegar notes associated with traditional kombucha, so the last thing I wanted to do was to completely mask the flavour of the green tea. I think flavoured fermented teas are a great introduction to the world of kombucha for those who have not tried it before, or those who have any hesitations.”
Kirsty Cameron, Marketing Lead at Left Field Kombucha, added: “It is a crucial time for Left Field as the category continues to grow year on year (+28% last year). Long term brand building is essential as we are relatively small in comparison to the big players, therefore can’t compete with supermarket kombucha prices. However, we are well placed to ride this wonderful wave of wellness as our products are something to enjoy rather than endure which is the case for many drinks with health benefits. We make kombucha properly and are proud to continue to offer well considered drinks that don’t look out of place in a yoga studio, or in a Michelin starred restaurant. Our investment in the brand, and trade portal highlights that we believe we have something worth shouting about, and to support our trade partners who will be crucial to supporting our growth and brand awareness.”

LONDON, UK. February 6th, 2025 – Spudos enters the Dragons’ Den on Thursday 13th of February at 8pm on BBC One with their unique crisps offering to see if they can tickle the Dragons’ taste buds. Spudos are unseasoned crisps that you season yourself with their 8 amazing flavours of Spud Dust. They’re UK produced and use home-compostable packaging and refillable tubs.
We eat 6 billion bags of crisps every year in the UK alone and most of those bags can’t be recycled and end up in landfill, the ocean, or being burned. Del Currie, Spudos co-founder, says “I started shopping more sustainably myself, but being a crisps addict, I was still sneaking off for a cheeky bag of crisps and feeling guilty throwing that empty packet in the bin”. So he decided to start Spudos with his business partner Chris Neal.
“I remembered getting Salt n Shake when I was a kid and feeling like a chef cooking my own crisps” says Currie. Crisps have pretty much been the same for the last 70 years, so they decided to do something different with their crisps while doing good for the planet. 
With a Spudos crisp kit you get a big 500g bag of crisps (about 16 regular bags worth), some Shake Bags and their Spud Dust seasoning.  You just add some crisps to a shake bag, sprinkle on your favourite seasoning, shake them up and enjoy.  All disposable packaging is home-compostable with Spudos, so you’re not dumping a crisp bag that’s going to take 80 years or more to decompose.
How did Spudos do in the Den? You’ll have to tune in to find out.

LONDON, UK. 17th January, 2025 – The Phoenix Arts Club, a cornerstone of London’s independent theatre scene for over 30 years, has launched a Crowdfunder campaign to raise £125,000 to secure its future operations in 2025. This renowned venue, now operating as a Community Interest Company (CIC), continues to champion creativity, community, and fair pay for artists.

Welcoming over 100,000 guests annually, The Phoenix Arts Club has hosted almost 1,000 shows in the past year alone and paid over £3 million to creative practitioners in the last five years. Despite successfully recovering from the pandemic and scaling its audio-visual capabilities with an Arts Council England grant, the venue now faces financial challenges due to rising operational costs and the lack of ongoing funding commitments.

Why Support The Phoenix Arts Club?
  • Protecting a vital space for theatre-makers, cabaret artists, and the creative community.
  • Ensuring artists are paid a fair wage, with revenue directly supporting performers. Over the last five years, more than £3 million has been paid to creative practitioners, with the venue proudly maintaining its status as a London Living Wage Employer.
  • Expanding community initiatives by offering a platform for emerging talent and theatre professionals. In 2025, the goal is to develop 10 new works of theatre, providing paid research and development time, as well as directorial, marketing, and producing support, culminating in live showcases within the venue.
  • Investing in the venue to maintain a welcoming and creative space, including upgrades to staging, the installation of a baby grand piano, and the purchase of theatre-specific headset microphones.
2024 was a landmark year for The Phoenix Arts Club, featuring hit productions such as Spring Awakening, RENT, and Title of Show, which later transferred to Southwark Playhouse. The club also hosted international stars like Tituss Burgess, Scissor Sisters, and Laura Mvula, alongside rising talents like Henry Calvert and Emily Kitsch. Cabaret highlights included performances by Sarah-Louise Young, Marcel Lucont, and Joe Black, while comedy legends such as Kevin Bridges, Stephen Merchant, and Jack Dee tested new material on its iconic stage.

By contributing to this fundraiser, supporters will play a vital role in safeguarding the future of this iconic venue and the creative community it nurtures. Every penny raised will be reinvested into the club’s charitable work and its mission to provide a home for creativity in London’s West End.
