SNACK TIME: Tom Howe and Katy Richards with some of the drinks that were distributed to key workers TM pic
NHS staff and care homes in Barnard Castle enjoyed some tasty snacks thanks to the stewards at the town’s workingmen s club.
Rather than simply throw stock away as it passed its use-by date, Tom Howe and Katy Richards decided to bring a bit of lockdown cheer to key workers. They parcelled up hundreds of bottles of fizzy drinks along with packets of crisps and nuts before delivering them to staff at the Richardson Hospital, Manor House, King’s Court, Beaconsfield and Charles Dickens Lodge.
