ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT COMMUNITY LUNCH. Pull up a chair and join us around a shared table where Ukrainian food, culture & conversation bring people
About this Event

Borshch Time is more than just a lunch — it’s cultural exchange, care and a sense of community. It is also an opportunity for us, as Ukrainians, to share our hospitality in gratitude for the kindness and support we have received from people across the UK.

At Borshch Time, food is not simply served — it is shared. It brings people together across cultures, languages and experiences.

Many guests return again and again — thank you for helping this community grow.

Organised by Ukraine Time

In partnership with Convoy4Ukraine (UK Charity No. 1211075)

Impact & Donations

Donations collected during the event help cover essential event costs, including ingredients, venue hire and basic supplies.

After these costs, and a small administrative contribution (approximately 10%), the remaining funds support humanitarian work connected with Ukraine through (UK Charity number 1211075).

Convoy4Ukraine fundraises to purchase 4x4 vehicles and ambulances, fill them with aid, and personally deliver them across Europe to Ukrainian partners.
