00:00So today we've got our free meal which is Christmas dinner so we're doing three
00:04courses. We started with cheese and biscuits and we've got full turkey
00:09dinner and we're going to have mince pies and ice cream for pudding.
00:12And how many people are you expecting?
00:15It's hard to know so on an average day we have about 40. Last Christmas we did
00:2170 so we're catering for about that number again.
00:24And over the last 12 months have you got busier?
00:27Definitely got busier. Our numbers are increasing all the time
00:31so this time last year we were maybe averaging about 30 people
00:36for each meal and we are up about 40 now.
00:40It's a good, there's a nice lot of people and there's a good ambience
00:49which is a strange word to use for a place like this isn't it?
00:53But it is, you know, the atmosphere is always good
00:57and there's always people around to talk to.
01:00Do you think it's got busier with the cost of living crisis?
01:04Yeah, a lot more people have found that there's services here they can use
01:12which is what it's meant for. It's a good environment, it's a
01:18lovely crowd, a load of really nice staff.
