It costs him £2,000 a month to run his oven - so he's putting it to good use 👏👏👏
Ed Hamilton-Trewhitt from the Brickyard Bakery uses the excess warmth from his ovens to heat up rooms in his community hub above his bakery, pictured in Guisborough, North Yorks"It's costing me £2,000 to just use the bread oven and the opportunity to get a second use out of it might not bring cash into the business, but it can bring some use to people. It seemed like a no brainer really because I've got a nice, warm space and people are desperate to have a nice, warm space.
Generous Ed said he was moved to action when haring tales of elderly customers that have taken to travelling around on buses using their bus pass to keep warm. Visitors to the warm room can enjoy a hot cup of tea, read a book or do a jigsaw in the knowledge that no-one is judging them. He added:"It's a terrible situation, and we can offer them somewhere where they know it's genuine and they can do whatever such as reading a book, or doing a jigsaw, or having a cup of tea. They know nobody is going to charge them or look at them funny, nobody is policing whose there, all we do is make sure that the space is nice and clean and we keep the tea and coffee stocked up for them.
