What is STEW?
​
STEW is an event designed to build community whilst raising funds for grassroots groups. It’s a space where we can come together, share a warming stew (hence the name), learn about one another's ideas, and make new connections.
After food is served, three people have just four minutes each to pitch their community grassroots project idea in front of the audience. There is then be a vote to decide which project will benefit York the most.
100% of the money raised through ticket sales will go into a prize pot. This will be shared between the pitchers, with the majority going to the winner. Using our suggested pricing as a guide, we aim to split the funds at the end of the night with at least £200 to the winner and £100 each going to the runners-up.
