French flavour, fantastic company and fundraising – Beaujolais Nouveau returns
Bath Rugby Foundation is happy to announce the return of its much-loved Beaujolais Nouveau Dinner, taking place on Thursday 19th November at The Ivy Bath.
Hosted in partnership with The Ivy Bath, Mogers Drewett and Novia Global, the evening promises the perfect blend of great food, fantastic company and French-inspired fun. Guests will enjoy a champagne reception, a delicious three-course dinner, complimentary Beaujolais Nouveau, themed entertainment and plenty of opportunities to embrace the occasion – with Parisian fancy dress encouraged for those wanting to compete for the best dressed prize.
Whether you’re looking to entertain clients, thank colleagues or simply enjoy a memorable evening with friends, the Beaujolais Nouveau Dinner offers a fantastic opportunity to come together while supporting a cause that changes young lives across our local community.
This is more than just an evening of fine dining. Every ticket purchased helps Bath Rugby Foundation deliver their life-changing pathway of support that helps children and young people facing barriers to education, inclusion and future opportunities.
One of the programmes benefiting from events like this is Engage, Bath Rugby Foundation’s innovative schools re-engagement programme for young people aged 9-13 who are at risk of permanent exclusion or disengaging from education.
Working closely with schools and families, the team delivers tailored, child-led support that helps young people rebuild confidence, improve attendance and rediscover a positive relationship with learning. Every session is designed around each young person’s individual interests, strengths and needs, giving them the opportunity to thrive both inside and outside the classroom.
The impact is already clear. Since launching in 2025, 31 young people have successfully returned to mainstream education. After just ten sessions, 86.5% of participants improve their attendance to within 1% of the national average, while engagement during active learning sessions increases by 36%.
These are more than just statistics – they represent young people rediscovering confidence, reconnecting with education and taking positive steps towards brighter futures.
By attending the Beaujolais Nouveau Dinner, guests will be helping more young people access this vital support, ensuring they have the opportunity to fulfil their potential and succeed in education.
Join us for an evening of French flair, fine dining and fundraising that truly makes a difference.
