A simple, local crowdfunding opportunity to support ‘not for profit’ ventures based within South Kirklees.

HD Soup

How does it work?

It’s really simple. Just book your place in advance – make a £5 donation on the evening – and that will get you:

a bowl of freshly made vegetarian soup
a voting chip
opportunity to find out about three inspirational community projects
plenty of time to network, have a chat, and generally have a lovely evening.
And you might even win the raffle!

If you would like to promote your business, organisation or project whilst you are there – we do take bribes! £3 will guarantee you a one minute slot in front of our lovely audience (but you don’t win any of the money!!!)

At the Event

3 local organisations each have 3 minutes to pitch their idea or project to the audience.
The audience can ask up to 3 questions.
3 pitches – 3 minutes – 3 questions
The audience use their voting chip to choose their favourite project
We eat soup and draw the raffle
The winning project takes away the proceeds from the evening to turn their idea into reality
