Penny Dinners – At Your Service
 |
Date: November 6th for 22 days Venue: Cork Penny Dinners To book: here
RTE One’s ‘At Your Service – To The Rescue’ team with expert hoteliers Francis and John Brennan are back this Christmas to help the renowned Cork charity ‘Penny Dinners’. The charity has been operating out of a small bungalow on Little Hanover Street in Cork, which has become dilapidated and run down. The ‘At Your Service’ team are planning to strip out the whole building, replace the roof and update the kitchen and dining room. During this refurbishment the charity will move to temporary premises nearby so as to keep producing this vital service. We are asking for help from local restaurants and cafes to help keep Penny Dinners in operation and to help supply hot food whilst the refurbishment is going on. The charity will be out of its usual premises for 22 days from the 6th of November. We are looking for local restaurants to help and provide us with one dinner for one day to feed 150 people. This could be easily transported dishes like large pots of stew, pasta bakes, curries, lasagnes and bulk dishes.If you would like to offer your services then please get in touch by email here or Call 048 90 427 646 / 00 44 2890 427646.
