Cree supports Local Charity Cook Book Initiative
North Down Ulster Unionist Leslie Cree has dished out one of his favourite recipes to help a local Cancer Charity raise vital funds.
The MLA has been approached as one of the 108 MLA’s in the Northern Ireland Assembly to reveal his favourite recipe for inclusion in a recipe collection ‘An Assembly of Recipes’.
The novel idea has been developed by a local Cancer Research N I Charity Committee in Portaferry who hope to raise an extra £20,000 in order to reach their target figure of £100.000.
“Cancer Research Northern Ireland does excellent work across the Province and local groups are invaluable in helping them raise vital resources for local research into the disease”.
“I am more than happy to support the Portaferry Committee in sending them my favourite dish”, said the MLA.
“I love cooking but being a politician I get very little opportunity to prepare my favourite dishes at home commented Mr Cree.”
“At this stage I will not divulge anything more about my favourite recipe other than it is a fish dish said Mr Cree. Everyone will have to wait until the Charity Cookbook becomes available for sale,” he said.
“I wish the local group every success in their enterprise. I look forward with interest the completion of the cookbook so that I can gain an insight into Members’ choices of their favourite foods.”
