It was a very proud moment at The ALT Group when we saw our first ever write up in the local paper! And what a wonderful pictures of our Volunteers :)

I hope you'll agree our menu was a great start, and it seemed to go down well with our diners. ​It was a long day, starting with collections at 9am and food preparation and cooking starting from 10.30. 
A huge Thank you! to Matthew, Heather & Shirley for their help. The quality and standard of the food was something to be proud of! 

All the meals were prepared and ready to serve for 6pm when the doors opened and it was an exciting moment. We welcomed several community members, mainly from Blackhill, and managed to pretty much have our first service without any hitches. 
Ann, Ryan, Jane N, Jane F and Chloe did a really good job of helping our diners and providing friendly service with a smile.
