The floods that hit our county at Christmas left hundreds of families having to evacuate their homes, and over 6 months later people are still clearing up the mess. Seeing the devastation, one pub landlord set up a free food initiative. MARK CUTTER, landlord at The Robert Gillow pub in Lancaster, launched the scheme in the wake of Storm Desmond in December, when the pub had a surplus of food to use up. The idea was so successful that he has continued to offer free food throughout the day. Last month he distributed 1200 boxes of cereal to schoolchildren and community groups.
