A Doncaster city centre cafe is offering up free Christmas dinners to elderly people to help combat loneliness this festive season.
The Frenchgate Cafe, which is based on Frenchgate opposite Boots in the city centre, will be serving up the meals on Christmas Eve from 1.30 to 4pm.
The event is aimed at any elderly people who are likely to be on their own at Christmas or any elderly person who would just like to come along for a nice Christmas lunch and meet new friends.
Family members who support any individual are also welcome.
A spokesperson said: “Just turn up, enjoy and meet new friends.
“The cafe are trying to help the community and support individuals at what can be a difficult time of year.”
There is no need to book in advance.
