It got underway at 12 noon and runs until 4pm.

Owner Alex White said; “All staff are working free of charge and it is cash only as the money goes directly in the charity collecting buckets. The tills are turned off so we cant give change.

“All tables are sharing tables and we will be serving house red and white wine and draft beers will be available. We are not doing tea, coffee, or desserts so we can have a quick turn-around and raise more funds.
