La Tasca Restaurants will be showing its appreciation to all those who didn’t have the luxury of an extended Christmas break, by offering a free coffee to all emergency services and healthcare workers throughout January.

Recognising the selfless hard work of our doctors, nurses, fireman, paramedics and police on Christmas Day and beyond who ensure the rest of us can have holidays to remember, the offer aims to be a gesture of warmth to those who really deserve it.

James Picton, operations director of La Tasca Restaurants, commented: “We all look forward to Christmas, but while some of us are able to enjoy this opportunity to kick back and relax, there are still many who worked really hard to make a difference to help and improve other people’s lives. On behalf of La Tasca, the complimentary coffee is a small token to show that we really appreciate everything that the emergency services and healthcare professionals have done for us over the Christmas season.”

The nationwide offer will last until January 31, 2014. Emergency service workers, and healthcare professionals simply have to show their ID at the counter to claim their free cup of coffee.
