THE co-founder of Social Bite sandwich chain, which feeds over 150 homeless people every day, is set to be the keynote speaker at the Forth Valley Chamber of Commerce’s 2017 Business Awards.
Josh Littlejohn will discuss how he co-founded Social Bite at the annual ceremony at Dunblane Hydro on September 21.
The entrepreneur became known when he got Hollywood stars George Clooney and Leonardo Di Caprio to visit his social enterprise cafe chain in Edinburgh.
Justin Grace, Chair of the Chamber’s Board of Directors, said: “Josh will share the inspiring story of how he co-founded Social bite, and latest social ventures like Brewgooder, a craft beer label that donates all of its profits to clean water projects around the world.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
