The 2025 festive season officially opened with 10Eighty’s annual Christmas party – a brilliant evening with our corporate clients, ambassadors, associates and colleagues.
As always, our HR network joined us for great conversation, drinks, delicious bowl food, canapés, and music from talented students of the Centre for Young Musicians.
Liz and Hannah delivered a short speech, which you can watch here.
This year we were delighted to return to The Shard, one of our long-standing favourite venues; last year we switched things up at The Tate. With its Renzo Piano design and panoramic city views, it gave us the perfect dose of festive sparkle.
The 10Eighty team never misses an opportunity to celebrate, and Tuesday’s event was a wonderful moment to reflect on everything achieved this year by our clients, colleagues, ambassadors and associates. It was also a lovely chance to catch up, connect and enjoy the season together.
On the menu were three delicious bowl dishes:
- Korean fried chicken with Asian slaw, wasabi & sesame
- King prawn skewers with chimichurri & lime mayo
- Aubergine, red pepper & chickpea coconut curry with rice, popadom & samosa
… and four tempting canapés:
- Harissa & red pepper hummus with spiced cauliflower, pomegranate & gem lettuce
- Potato & chickpea doughnut with lemon & herb dip
- Sourdough crouton with pink roasted sirloin, mustard crème fraiche, chive & shallot
- Smoked salmon blini with chive crème fraiche & caviar
Team 10Eighty wish you a wonderful Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year!
A good time was had by all and if you didn’t make it to the party, we look forward to catching up with you soon. Below are some notes about our musicians:
Centre for Young Musicians (CYM)
CYM believes music education should be accessible to all, regardless of background, and has helped thousands of young Londoners realise their musical potential. It provides high-quality, progressive training and performance opportunities for more than 400 children aged 5–18 every Saturday during term time.
The Big Give Christmas Challenge
The Foundation for Young Musicians’ Big Give Challenge 2025 is now open! Help us give the gift of music this festive season.
Your support enables us to provide bursaries for talented young musicians who couldn’t otherwise access opportunities at CYM, LSSO and LYWB. Our goal is to raise £10,000, with every donation made between 2nd–9th December doubled by The Childhood Trust and generous sponsors, meaning your gift has twice the impact.
Thank you for helping young musicians pursue their dreams.
10Eighty is delighted to support this appeal. If you’re able to donate and have your donation doubled, please visit FYM’s Big Give Page: https://donate.biggive.org/campaign/a05WS000005BRreYAG
