Jessica Doyle, spokesperson for Curry for Change, commented: “Food is a great way of bringing people together, and with Curry for Change, you get to enjoy a lovely meal out whilst supporting vulnerable families who suffer from hunger. We’re delighted to welcome Tamarind and its guests to the Curry for Change family.”

It is also designed to create fun for curry lovers and increase awareness and appreciation of the many different cooking styles from countries of the Indian subcontinent,” he said.
