**Restaurant chain Frankie & Benny’s has chosen Together for Short Lives, the charity
that supports seriously ill children and their families, to be their charity partner.
It has committed itself to raise £250,000 for the charity during the twelve-month
partnership.**

Together for Short Lives provides support to 54 UK children’s hospices, all of which
rely heavily on donations from the public. Each Frankie & Benny’s restaurant will
be directly fundraising for their local children’s hospice.

## Family friendly

[Frankie & Benny’s](http://www.frankieandbennys.com) describe their restaurants 
as family friendly and are committed to “putting families at the heart of their 
business”.  So the partnership with Together for Short Lives has a clear synergy.
