Vendors who have catered the lunches, which take place outside the hotel, have included Gyro Guys, KK Catering, The English Indian and Pietanic.

Sophie Allan, HR Administrator at NOHM, said: “We trialled this initiative for the first time last year and we’ve had such a positive response that we felt it was important to keep it going in 2024.

“We have been able to bring members of staff together for a chat and a spot of lunch, and we think it’s been really beneficial to the overall morale of the team.”
