Castle Brom business plans Christmas feast for homeless


A CASTLE Bromwich takeaway has announced plans to hold a special dinner for the homeless on Christmas Day.
Lime Pickle, in Windleaves Road, recently confirmed it would be serving hot food and drink to some of the region's most vulnerable residents on December 25.
Setting out its plans on Facebook, the Indian eatery said: "The holidays are a time for everyone to come together with their families and friends.
"We are aware that not everyone is that fortunate so we would like to give those less fortunate an opportunity to come together as a community and spend Christmas with us at Lime Pickle."
While the business will be closed to the public on the day, it plans to serve a selection of its menu to around 100 people.
Bosses have been in touch with charities and spreading the word on social media. 
The latest figures suggest that there are around four or five people sleeping rough in Solihull, but several dozen in neighbouring Birmingham.
