Free pints of alcohol-free beer for the NHS’s 72nd Birthday Celebrations
Big Drop Brewing Co is — by popular demand — extending its free beer delivery service for hospital staff and is taking requests from NHS workers to visit their place of work.
Serving pints from the back of the Big Drop van, the alcohol-free brewer has been flat-out visiting hospital car parks in the London area over the past few weeks including Royal Free London, Chase Farm Hospital and Homerton University Hospital. Initially intended as a way to chime-in with the nation’s effort to thank our NHS Heroes during Lockdown, Big Drop has since been involved in the NHS 72nd Birthday celebrations. It is now in conversation with a number of other hospitals, ambulance depots and other NHS places of work further afield.
Rob Fink, founder and CEO of Big Drop, commented: “Whilst the majority of people have had to stay put and work from home, others have been putting themselves at risk and dealing with the pandemic hands on. It’s truly heroic and we can’t thank them enough. So we thought: wouldn’t it be amazing to offer our chilled alcohol-free beer to those who are having lunch, taking a break or finishing a shift? That’s the beauty of alcohol-free beer, it suits any time of the day and week.”
Alison Kira at the Royal Free Charity added: “We just wanted to say a huge thank you to Big Drop for visiting our three hospitals and for the additional beer provided to our satellite sites. People enjoyed getting out into the sunshine for a cold craft beer with colleagues – it was a great lift. “
If you’re an NHS worker in London and South East of England and want to nominate your place of work to receive free beer, send an email to cellar@bigdropbrew.com. NHS staff also receive a 20% discount on any online orders at https://shop.bigdropbrew.com
