Transcript

00:00Ok then Matt, owner of the Lockside Steakhouse in Stourbridge, just explain your idea, your

00:07initiative for Christmas Day, what you're going to be doing.

00:09So since the eating allowance has been cut for the old age pensioners in the country,

00:15we thought we'd help out a little bit by asking our customers to donate £5 per dinner, we

00:21matched it, £5 per dinner, we ended up with a couple of hundred quid, put them together,

00:27got some dinners together and we're going to deliver them all on Christmas Day to the

00:32elderly who are less fortunate than ourselves, so we can help them all out.

00:37So roughly how many are there, how many are you delivering to?

00:39We're doing about 20-30 dinners on Christmas Day, I'm delivering myself in my good old

00:43caddy van, and we're going to go out and deliver them all on Christmas Day.

00:47That's brilliant mate, it's a really good idea that is, and it's what Christmas is all

00:50about isn't it, giving to the needy and all that kind of thing, so have you had much feedback

00:55from the customers?

00:56Loads of feedback, loads of good feedback, people really got behind us and donated, we've

01:03had to stop them donating at one point because we were getting too much, there's only so

01:07much I can do, there's only so many hours in one day, I would have been out until Boxing

01:11Day at least delivering dinners, I had to literally stop, so we want to thank everyone

01:15as well, cheers.
