DINERS celebrating with friends and family by eating out this Christmas, will also be contributing towards a free restaurant meal for an older resident in their community, thanks to one scheme.
The Christmas initiative by French restaurant Bistrot Pierre will donate dinners to deserving Plymouth residents, in a first-of-its-kind partnership with Age UK Plymouth.
For every Sunday Christmas party booking of six people or more in December, Bistrot Pierre, in the Royal William Yard, will gift a free Menu Pierre three-course meal to a carer or charity user nominated by Age UK Plymouth, redeemable throughout January 2023. This initiative comes at a time of year when many older people are known to be battling loneliness, alongside the ever-increasing cost of living crisis. According to a report published by Age UK, around 1.4 million older people struggle with loneliness and the festive season can be among one of the most challenging times of year.
