00:06 and it's been here a while, this restaurant, isn't it?
00:08 - Yes it has, yeah.

00:11 - 35 years?

00:15 - I was gonna say, yeah, yeah.
00:16 - Before my time.
00:17 - What's the secret?
00:18 (laughing)
00:19 - Good food.
00:20 - Good food, good answer.
00:21 And who've we got then?
00:22 So we've got yourself sir, Sadiq from the restaurant.
00:24 We've got?
00:25 - Shasidin from the Sadiq Foundation.
00:27 - Kiel?
00:28 - Adam Aldrin from Scarboys Boxing.
00:30 - And?
00:31 - Cassie Gray from the Sleep Foundation.
00:33 - Cool.
00:34 So just fill us in a little bit Shaz,
00:36 we're here today just to really recognise the good work
00:38 the restaurant's been doing.
00:40 Fill us in a bit.
00:40 - Robbie's have been the heart of Kings Winford.
00:42 The work they've done has been absolutely incredible.
00:44 And they've recently launched a campaign
00:46 where they wanna give back to the community
00:48 and I think that is such an amazing thing.
00:50 Here in Kings Winford, it's all about one community.
00:52 It's all about supporting one another
00:54 and being there for each other.
00:55 And Robbie's are doing 500 meals,
00:58 giving away to people and especially this month
01:01 we were celebrating Ramadan as well.
01:03 Ramadan's all about giving
01:05 and it's all about recognising local people
01:07 and Sadiq and his family have been absolutely amazing for us.
01:11 - And you'd second that I guess guys.
01:13 - Absolutely, yeah.
01:14 - Yeah.
01:15 And Sadiq, I mean, you know,
01:16 that's a few quid's worth of stock, 500 meals.
01:19 That's a lot of work.
01:20 What's?
01:21 - If you divide that by over 35 years, it's nothing.
01:24 - Yeah, that's your way of looking at it, yeah?
01:26 - That's how we see it and also,
01:27 because we were a successful business in Kings Winford,
01:30 our locals have thrived us over the years
01:33 to help us get to where our goals and ambitions are.
01:36 That's why we thought it's very close to our hearts
01:39 to giving away some food to charity
01:42 and let people enjoy something
01:45 that maybe they can't afford
01:46 or maybe it's a hard time for them.
01:49 - Yeah.
01:50 - So we just thought we'd give back to the community
01:51 and we thought good hands off shouts
01:53 to help us along the way.
01:54 (laughing)
01:55 - Cool, well, great stuff.
01:56 on behalf of the community thank you sir.
