GUSTO TACKLING DRINK DRIVING
Thu 23rd Oct 08 - 10:31
GET HOME EASILY AND SAFELY THIS NEW YEARS EVE!
Following the success of last year's free lift home initiative Living Ventures Restaurants are once again driving home the safety message this New Years Eve through offering all its customers of its non city centre locations a free lift home after the party celebrations.
New Years Eve is renowned for a shortage of taxis which makes it difficult to plan a celebration to remember. Trying to get home at the end of the night is the biggest problem for revellers which can lead to an increase in drink driving.
Tim Bacon, Managing Director of Living Ventures, parent company to GUSTO and Blackhouse explained; "We had a great response last year to the initiative and we are more than happy to provide the same service this year as it was a real benefit to our guests. Drink driving is an issue all year, an issue that all bar and restaurant operators should take seriously. With the more relaxed atmosphere during the festive season, the temptation to offend becomes greater. At Living Ventures we are always looking at ways to help prevent this, therefore we are driving all our diners home. We always place a strong emphasis on ensuring our customers have a truly memorable time at New Year. By providing our diners with free transport home, it's a small gesture to thank our customers and ensure they get home safely."
The restaurants taking part this year are GUSTO; Knutsford, Didsbury, Alderley Edge, Cookridge and Heswall. The Hale Grill will also be offering a complimentary lift home.
