LOROS Hospice, Leicester

C&C Catering Equipment Ltd is delighted to share one of its recently completed schemes at LOROS Hospice, which it was honoured to support alongside David Bentley and several generous manufacturers. The project was managed by C&C at cost and provided a professional foodservice environment at the compassionate care facility for terminally ill adult patients.

The scheme that has been planned for over a year provides new catering facilities across the main kitchen and servery counter areas of the hospice, with extra care and a strict hygiene protocol having to be followed due to the nature of the facility, which provides care for over 2,500 people each year to terminally ill patients, their families, and carers.

At the agreement of the Client, and following an initial conversation between David Bentley and C&C MD Peter Kitchin, the team were delighted to show their support for the hospice by working on the project at cost. Additionally, via close industry working relationships and the enormous generosity of several manufacturers, the team were able to provide significant discounts on equipment for the charity in a gesture of support. These included C&C Catering Fabrications, Falcon, True, Meiko, Merrychef, EAIS, Mechline, and HMA Ventilation who provided specialist ventilation advice as well as the canopies and service spine, Savesta as main contractor, and David Bentley as the lead foodservice consultant and project coordinator.
