Paddy Magill started his career in the wine trade in 1984, working for Majestic Wine, when there were just 10 warehouses, now there are over 200. In 1987 Paddy moved to H Sichel and Son, selling wine in North and West London, and returned to Majestic Wine in 1988 to work in their Head Office selling to corporate clients in the West End and City of London. He built and opened his own restaurant in South West London, but 2 years later he had to close it due to the early 1990s recession.
In 1993 Paddy joined Andre Simon (now Jeroboams), managing their flagship outlet and two years later became Retail Director, which he held until 2006, when his family moved to Somerset. He started a Fine Wine Broking business with two others and three years later in 2015 he set up Vine Wine in Somerset, selling to private customers, weddings venues and pubs.
Cystic Fibrosis Care was established in 2015 by Co-founders Pat Kilpatrick (Director) alongside Christy (Chairman) & Sasha York (Trustee). All are parents to children with CF.
Pat Kilpatrick was the Northern regional fundraising manager for Cystic Fibrosis Trust. Christy and Sasha York wanted to set up their own charity following their son, Charlie’s, lung transplant in 2014. Having raised a substantial amount over nine years for Cystic Fibrosis Trust they wanted to take more control of monies raised and how the money was distributed and Cystic Fibrosis Care was born. The Charity remains small and dedicated to helping CF Centres, families, adults and children suffering with and from CF. CF is a debilitating and life threatening hereditary illness. Sadly, life expectancy is still only 38 years.
Funds raised go directly to hospitals, CF Centres, families and individuals for welfare grants. Never have the CF Community needed so much help.
By joining us this evening you will be helping someone with CF a great deal and make an enormous difference.
Thank you for your support, we hope to see you there! 🍷 🌟
