Leicester friends cooking 2,000 Christmas meals for people in need

Breakfast on BBC Radio Leicester

Available for over a year

A group of friends have been cooking Christmas dinners to try and feed 2,000 people over four days. Jack Meldrum, Tallulah Horton and chef, George Stewart came together to serve up 700 Christmas dinners for homeless people across two city centres last year. This year, they are looking to more than double the amount of dinners, which they'll serve across the UK. Charities are helping to distribute the festive meals as far as Scotland. The friends, with help from an army of volunteers, have been cooking at a pub in Cropston, called The Pumping Station.
