We’re delighted to share that Rudding Park in Harrogate, which has supported The Muscle Help Foundation for many years, is supporting Meatball Month and will be including a special venison meatball dish on its menu in November, with £5 from every dish sold being donated directly to the charity. Guests can also make their own donation to the charity as well should they wish to via a QR code on the hotel’s menus.

Matthew Wilkinson, Head of Kitchens at Rudding Park, says: “We are thrilled to be supporting the Meatballs for Muscle Dreams campaign. Throughout November Clocktower Brasserie will feature ‘Venison Meatballs with Pappardelle, Kale and Tio Pepe Sauce’ on the menu with £5 from every dish donated to the Meatballs for Muscle Dreams campaign. It’s such an worthwhile cause and I am confident our Venison meatballs won’t disappoint!”

If you can’t make it down to Rudding Park during November however, don’t worry, because Matthew has kindly shared his special venison meatball recipe on the #meatballmonth website. This means people wishing to support the charity, can still do so by arranging their own meatball party ay home instead and can cook Matthew’s recipe for their guests.

If you’re planning to hold a meatball party at home, then getting involved is easy! Simply invite your friends and family over- everyone is welcome at the table. Cook them a lovely meatball dish – meat, veggie or vegan. Ask for a donation and in doing so, you’ll be raising funds to support the Muscle Help Foundation to continue to deliver its wish fulfilment experiences. Sign up today and find Matthew’s recipe as well as plenty more cooking inspiration here: https://meatballs4md.org/.

The meatball month campaign has got the backing of an amazing array of notable chefs. As well as Matthew Wilkinson, the campaign is also being supported by Tom Kerridge, Angela Hartnett, Tom Parker-Bowles, Ken Hom, Lawrence Dallaglio, and comedian, presenter and writer, Harry Hill, who also presents Junior Bake Off. Harry released a video recently asking the nation to ‘don their aprons’ and start planning their meatball parties https://youtube.com/shorts/xOtRRkoxRY8.

The charity’s CEO, Michael McGrath MBE, who also lives with MD says: “This fundraising campaign is designed to engage the nation’s appetite and love of food to help raise money for charity. We are incredibly grateful to Rudding Park for its support this year and would encourage anyone wanting to have a great meatball dish cooked for them, to book in to the Rudding Park restaurant asap. Or if you want to hold your own party at home, then visit our campaign website to find everything you need to get involved.”
