On Wednesday, December 17th, employees from United Biscuits, led by team leader Visda Scott, delighted 80 service users from Cricklewood Homeless Concern with a lavish Christmas lunch and celebrations.

Below, Samantha Peck, Executive Co-ordinator at Cricklewood Homeless Concern, tells her story:

“Let me start by saying what a fantastic success the day was. Visda and her team were amazing. Everything that they brought and did exceeded our highest expectations by miles! The hall and reception looked fabulous (Winter Wonderlands had nothing on us!). The team were fantastic and were friendly and fun with the customers.

The presents United Biscuits put together were amazing and full of wonderful things. The customers, staff and volunteers had a brilliant, brilliant time. I hope the team enjoyed it as much as we did. They were a really great bunch and worked so hard.

Thank you doesn't quite cut it, but, THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH to everyone at United Biscuits from everybody at Cricklewood Homeless Concern. It was an event to remember.

I would also like to say thank you to Doreen at Works 4Ufor offering us the opportunity to work with Visda andher team.It made Christmas for our Customers and we hope to work with United Biscuits again this Christmas!”
