On 16th September 2026, Esharelife Foundation had the pleasure of welcoming the Rt Hon Dame Priti Patel MP to its headquarters for a discussion on the Foundation’s charitable work, its programmes and the communities it supports.
Dame Priti Patel has long supported Esharelife Foundation and has maintained a close connection with the Foundation over the years. She has attended several Esharelife events, including previous Gala Dinners, and was a guest speaker at last year’s Gala Dinner. She has also supported several of the Foundation’s activities this year, including The Longest Tiramisù – the Guinness World Records attempt held at Chelsea Old Town Hall in April, for which Esharelife Foundation was the official charity partner. The event brought together the Italian and wider London community to support Esharelife’s charitable work, with funds raised through the event donated to the Foundation.
During her visit, Dame Priti Patel engaged with members of the Esharelife team to learn more about the Foundation’s work, including its longstanding collaboration with AVSI Kenya. The discussion provided an opportunity to share the vision behind Esharelife’s continued efforts and highlight the importance of supporting initiatives that provide greater access to education, training and healthcare for disadvantaged communities.
For Esharelife, collaboration with organisations such as AVSI Kenya remains central to its work, supporting projects that aim to create opportunities and improve the lives of children, families and communities. The exchange with Dame Priti Patel offered a valuable opportunity to share the work of the Foundation while also considering its continued development and how its programmes can support communities and contribute to positive change.
The Esharelife Foundation extends its sincere thanks to Dame Priti Patel for her time, continued support and for the thoughtful and constructive discussion with the Foundation’s team.
