TWO Love Island winners have visited a restaurant in Basingstoke to promote a Christmas fundraising campaign.
Cosy Club Basingstoke has partnered with Action for Children for this year’s Christmas fundraising campaign, which launched with the help of two special guests.
Love Island winners Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan, who became engaged in April, popped in to show their support for the campaign and encouraging guests to raise much-needed funds for the charity, while enjoying a festive treat.
Cosy Club, in the food court area of Festival Place, will donate 20p from every Cosy Christmas Pie sold over the festive period to Action for Children and, with the expectation that more than 50,000 pies will be enjoyed at Cosy Clubs across the UK this party season, the final donation will be around £10,000.

The chain is inviting 'Cosy Clubbers' to decorate Christmas trees with an Action for Children decorative star featuring a QR code, allowing guests to donate an amount directly to the charity.
Lucy Knowles, managing director for Cosy Club, said: "Whether our guests are enjoying our delicious Cosy Christmas Pie or hanging stars on our tree and donating that way, they can rest assured children’s lives across the UK are being improved thanks to them."
Action for Children protects and supports children and young people, providing practical and emotional care and support. They ensure their voices are heard, and campaign to bring lasting improvements to their lives.
Love Island's Kai and Sanam, who were voted best couple on the ITV reality dating show in March 2023, said: "It was fantastic to visit and meet the wonderful team at Cosy Club, and see their partnership with Action for Children come to life.
"The highlight of our visit was enjoying a delicious pie, with proceeds supporting this amazing charity.
"With 4.3 million children in the UK currently living in poverty, the festive period can bring additional challenges to already struggling families.
"By enjoying a meal at Cosy Club or participating in fundraising activities, you can make a big difference."
