In February, staff at the British Embassy Budapest held a charity baking event which raised fifty thousand Hungarian forints in support of the good work of the John Wesley homeless kindergarten.

During his visit, Ambassador Knott met with head kindergarten teachers, played with children and handed over the collected amount to the kindergarten’s director.

The British Embassy Budapest has long been supporting disadvantaged communities. Both in 2011 and in 2012 members of the embassy donated clothes, toys and non-perishable food items to poor and Roma communities. In the past 5 years the embassy also took part in Christmas soup kitchen for the homeless initiatives.
