Tony Osborne is the cook in the Annexe Café,
a busy community café which is part of the
Annexe Healthy Living Centre in Partick,
Glasgow. The café has held a healthyliving award since 2008 and in July took this
commitment one step further and achieved
the healthyliving award plus. According to
Tony it’s the best kept secret in Partick!
- Q. What were your main reasons for applying for the healthyliving award?
- A. We applied for the healthyliving award as the building was a Healthy Living Centre and therefore we were keen to promote healthy activities and part of this was having a community café … naturally this led onto delivering healthy food for the local community at affordable prices.
- Q. Has working towards and achieving the award been worthwhile?
- A. Achieving the healthyliving award reinforced our healthy ideals and gave us the stamp of approval that what we were doing was recognised by a wider audience.
- Q. What do you think the healthyliving award means to your customers?
- A. The customers of the café know that the food is always healthy, so it’s nice to get the recognition of the healthyliving award plus on the wall now as a sign of our commitment to quality healthy food at affordable prices.
