The team at the White Hart Hotel delivered 150 pizzas to construction workers working around the clock to create the Harrogate Nightingale hospital

The team at Harrogate's White Hart Hotel made a special order of pizzas for the construction workers at the Harrogate Nightingale Hospital.  Simon Cotton, the Managing Director of the HRH Group, which owns the White Hart said they were asked what they could do to provide something more than the basic catering the workers have on site -- he was told they fancied pizza and he set out to make it happen.

Simon said he "sourced some proper dough"  to try to make the pizzas as tasty as possible.

 



The White Hart is one of a number of hotels in Harrogate that is being used as accommodation for key workers. The restaurant and bar are closed and all meals are delivered by room service.

The hotel has NHS, MOD and catering staff staying - all working to create a Nightingale hospital at the Harrogate Convention Centre.

"We delivered the pizzas to the construction workers yesterday. A number looked tired but their spirits were up - they are working a 24 hour operation. When we gave them the pizzas we all observed social distancing guidelines. I think they were happy to have something more than the sandwiches on site"


Once the construction workers have finished the Nightingale will then see the arrival of NHS who will undergo training before, and if, patients arrive.
