The collaborations that have formed around @eggcup13 during the Lancaster and Morecambe Lockdown have been inspiring and highlight what can be achieved when we work together. #foodpartnership #goodfoodtogether @FoodCities
Partnership working with Lanc & Morecambe College and Chefs Catering NW helped Eggcup to get good, enjoyable food to the most vulnerable, so they feel supported by the community. We're proud to be part of it. #goodfoodtogether #foodpartnership @FoodFuturesLanc @FoodCities
