Friends help pay for roast dinners for elderly couples in Grantham Published: 12:16, 08 January 2021
A local fund-raising hero has arranged for six local couples and four individuals to receive a free two-course roast dinner on Sunday.
Rob Dixon, of Sunningdale, wanted to spread a bit of positivity this week. He said: âAfter listening to the Prime Minister announce [another] lockdown and knowing the potential problems this would cause local individuals and businesses, I thought letâs bring some positivity out there, be it only small it may help others.
âI put a post on social media asking people to nominate an elderly couple or individual that may be finding things tough. Little did I know the nominations would come in so quickly. I then started getting messages from friends near and far that they would like to donate money to buy a meal for others. It was unbelievable generosity.â
