Spending precious time together - the Community Christmas Lunch at Billingtons

Jason (The Eatery) and Kris (Billingtons Oldham) are opening their doors for what promises to be a very special Christmas Day event

This Christmas Day, Jason (The Eatery) and Kris (Billingtons Oldham) are opening their doors - and their hearts - to those who would otherwise spend the day alone.

They are hosting a complimentary Christmas Lunch for up to 50 local people who may be isolated, lonely, or without family to share the day with.

If you - or someone you know - will be spending Christmas Day on their own at home with no visitors, no company, or no one to talk to, this lunch is especially for you/them.

The aim is simple - to create a warm, welcoming space filled with company, conversation, and a proper Christmas dinner - so no-one has to spend the day in silence.

Jason and Kris both believe that loneliness behind closed doors often goes unseen, especially during the festive season.

This lunch is their way of bringing people together at Christmas and giving back to the community that supports them all year.

If you know someone who would benefit from joining Jason and Kris on Thursday, please get in touch by emailing: info@billingtonsoldham.co.uk
