Chestertons’ BIG Breakfast raises £3,566 Image

Now an established event on the charitable calendar, the BIG breakfast website dealt with over 500 pre-ordered baps from local companies supporting the event.

Chestertons’ staff downed their estate agent tools once again and worked tirelessly as one of three teams – one working in Bruno's Restaurant to prepare the pre-ordered baps, the second team undertook deliveries throughout Gibraltar whilst team three created a “pop up kitchen” in Ocean Village to serve passers-by (the smell of bacon wafting deliciously through the morning air) their freshly prepared breakfast baps.

A big thank you to Morrisons for kindly donating the baps, bacon and eggs and to Restsso for donating the sausages and condiments. This meant Chestertons donated just over £500 in lieu of purchasing the items. And thank you to Brunos for the loan of their kitchen (and a top chef to help out).

GBC TV cameras once again captured the fun and our very own Finely Bradford presented the cheque live on GBC Open Day TV. Social media was awash with selfies as staff arrived at banks, legal firms, government departments, construction companies and a mass of other corporates with pre-ordered breakfasts.

“My thanks again to Team Chestertons for stepping up to the mark and beating last year’s record. By the time we served the last bap we were all thoroughly exhausted yet buzzing from a great day raising money for charity” said Chestertons’ CEO Mike Nicholls. “The welcome we received at companies was fantastic. The queue for breakfast outside our agency in Ocean Village was testament to a successful day for us all. Thank you to the 853 people who bought a bap and to Brunos, Morissons and Restsso for their support”.
