Charity
Fundraising is a huge part of what we do at ACE, with our board electing an official charity partner every year.
In 2026 we're delighted to be partnering with Only a Pavement Away.
​
ONLY A PAVEMENT AWAY is the charity that supports people looking to rebuild their lives through employment opportunities in hospitality.
​
We act as a bridge between forward thinking employers in the hospitality industry and charities working with individuals facing or experiencing homelessness, and prison leavers, to help them rebuild their lives through long term, stable employment. Only A Pavement Away helps individuals get from where they are to where they want to be through employment opportunities, financial support and tailored learning & development.
