Firm’s lockdown pop-up proves roaring success
A non-profit initiative from Troon café, bar and restaurant Lido has reached a fundraising milestone as it donates £5,000 to Hospitality Action – a charity which offers lifeline support and services to people working across the hospitality industry.
An increase in new dog owners and sustained daily walking habits for locals has contributed to the popularity of the daytime pop-up, which offers takeaway breakfast, lunch, coffee and cakes from 9am – 4pm seven days a week.
The pop-up has welcomed many regulars since it launched in February as well as several new faces of the fourlegged variety picking up their very own pup-puccinos.
Additional profits have been allocated to supporting Buzzworks’ own people in need via the Buzzworks Wellbeing Fund.
Kenny Blair, Buzzworks MD, said: “Giving back to our people and charities of choice has always been high on our agenda so we’re proud to support them doing what we do best – providing world-class hospitality.
“It’s been a difficult year for our industry but I’d like to thank everyone for their continued support.
“We hope to hit our target of raising £10,000 for good causes through the Lido pop- up before dine-in restaurants reopen and we can welcome people back inside our venues.”
