    Grubstaker Launch Night

    May 8, 2014 /

    Last week saw us at Leeds Food & Drink Association launch our Grubstakers scheme (supporters of LFDA).

It’s all just beginning to take off, and the first official event is the launch of Grubstakers (excellent word, no?!). The event promises to be amazing.
