Meating the need

BUTCHER'S GIVING AWAY HAMPERS TO PENSIONERS

- By SOFIE JACKSON

A BUTCHER's shop is able to give away more than £2,800 worth of meat this year thanks to a generous donations from customers and businesses.

Throughout the festive season, Don Dixon’s Butcher have been giving out hampers to pensioners.

Steve Pennycad and David Jenkinson are the joint owners of the butcher in Holderness Road, having taken it over from Don Dixon when he retired. The charity appeal began last year, when a customer left £20 and asked for it to be paid forward to help someone in need at Christmas.
