Take Away services, Gigs & Events and other useful things
We are all familiar with the usual take-away services, but now is not a usual time. Of course there are heaps of good Fish & Chip shops that I am sure many of your normal take aways, but there are some new entrants. Many pubs and other businesses providing a take-away collection and /or delivery services. Also other businesses doing their bit to help in the community.
So we have picked a few highlights of some of the things we are aware of from some of those lovely Norwich businesses, click on the links to find out more
