This year has been a little bit ‘ruff’ for everyone and animal shelters are absolutely no exception. Our next door neighbours at Pennine Pen Animal Sanctuary have been forced to cancel their fundraising fairs for the year which has resulted in a massive loss of vital income needed to care for their four legged residents. We are determined to help them in the only way we know how – through the uniting power of pizza! We are going to use the pizza ovens and equipment at our disposal in our fully functional test kitchen to set up a pop up pizza takeaway named “Eat Pizza to Help Pups” on Thursday 15th October between 10am and 4:30pm. We are inviting local businesses, social bubbles and individuals to treat themselves to a pizza lunch in order to help raise much needed ‘dough’!

The pizzas can be delivered free of charge to local addresses though we recommend that you collect at our social distancing friendly collection point for optimum hot‘n’fresh pizza . The stone baked pizzas will be sold for just £5 for a margherita, or ‘Bark-herita’ or £5.50 for a pepperoni,or ‘Pup-eroni’ with all the proceeds going to Pennine Pen Animal Sanctuary. In honour of National Dog Adoption Day on the 25th October, the pizza boxes will feature a photo and short profile describing a Pennine Pen resident that is in need of adoption in an effort to help them find their ‘forever home’! We will also be doing social media shout outs as a big thankyou for taking part on behalf of Pennine Pen.

If you would like to take part in our “Eat Pizza to Help Pups” fundraising day, simply reserve your pizzas by contacting cat@linda-lewis.co.uk or 0161 633 5797, stating how many pizzas you require with which topping and whether you would like to collect or have your pizzas delivered.
