The Plattery is a catering company, who typically cater events. However, it’s here in London’s time of need, having suspended event catering to focus on how it can help. Some food for thought: not only is the store providing grocery delivery in London with pre-planned options available – it’s also offering those of you in a fortunate position to ‘Pay it Forward’. This means that it can also provide free meals across London to those in desperate need. Even if you aren’t planning on ordering, you can still help those in need by visiting their Go Fund Me, too!
