A FOOD supplier is offering free delivery service to NHS workers.

Elite Fine Foods in Newhaven normally supplies fresh fish, meat and groceries to pubs, hotels and restaurants, but the business is now providing food to the public due to the coronavirus crisis.

Director Gavin Scott said: “Someone showed me the clip of the nurse who had just finished her shift and couldn’t get any food as the supermarket shelves were empty, so we thought, we have to do something.

“It’s a mad time. We have to pull together.”

Elite Fine Foods also has a Call and Collect service which is open to anyone.

Orders can be placed over the phone between 9am and 2pm and collected from the depot between 3pm and 6pm, and customers will not have to get out of their car.
