Marylebone Village retailers are giving back
For some the new norm is staying at home, working from home, exercising from home… but key workers are working extremely hard to make sure we are being looked after during the coronavirus outbreak. We want to give a big shout out to some of the retailers at Marylebone Village, who are giving back to charities and hospitals.
Sandro, 6 Marylebone High Street
Sandro have produced 10,000 masks with excess fabric stock from previous collections, which will be sent to hospitals, EHPAD and associations in France and Europe. Sandro has also made a commitment to the Red Cross by designing women’s and men’s t shirts, of which 100% of the profits will be donated to the Red Cross. Sandro will also offer a breakfast every Friday to hospital staff in the areas most affected by the outbreak. https://us.sandro-paris.com/

The shop offers a hugely popular range of pickles, pies, sausages, pates, terrines and sausage rolls. They have teamed up with Leon restaurants and Feed Britain to deliver food to those who need it and will give 100% of the proceeds to the NHS. https://thegingerpig.co.uk
