7) Wright Brothers At Home have gone national with their fresh fish deliveries! Co-founders Ben Wright and Robin Hancock say, “Our aim was and still is to get the fishermen fishing, workers working and people cooking at home. We buy our fish from Brixham Fish Market, helping the local community there during challenging times and especially going into the holiday season when they’re usually extremely busy. We’ve also brought twenty-six of our staff back into work from being furloughed. While we would like to be doing still more, we feel that we’re moving in the right direction.” Totally. shop.thewrightbrothers.co.uk
