To kick start a new charity initiative and help those struggling across Midlothian and East Lothian with vital food supplies who are struggling because of coronavirus, Graham Blaikie, owner of The Mercat Grill in Whitecraig, East Lothian has donated £250 worth of food and drink to East Lothian’s Foodbank.

He’s also pledged to match every food item donated by its customers when they order takeaway from the restaurant.

Said Graham, “We’re also going to be making some of our tasty, fresh and wholesome cuisine and dropping these dishes off on a regular basis for the incredible, brave and hard-working NHS workers at the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, to whom we are extremely grateful for their life-saving work.”
