Domino's has pledged that it will deliver a further 100,000 pizza slices to heroic frontline staff and those in need during the coronavirus pandemic.
The pizza chain has said it will deliver a further 100,000 slices to frontline workers as part of their on-going partnership with Feed The Heroes.

Feed The Heroes is a group of volunteers supporting Ireland’s healthcare teams, by linking up frontline workers, donors and Ireland’s food industry.
The meals are paid for by generous donations made through their GoFundMe page however Domino’s donates each pizza completely free of charge.
Cian O’Flaherty, Feed The Heroes Co-Founder, said: “We are blown away by the support from Domino’s and really appreciate their backing for Feed The Heroes' mission.
"A pizza makes a really positive impact on teams under pressure and we know it gives a lift to everyone at a very difficult time. These deliveries help to sustain critical frontline workers and lets them know how much we appreciate everything they’re doing.
Clyde Jamison, Domino’s Country Lead for Ireland , said: “We’re proud of all our franchisees and their teams and how generously they have reacted to the pandemic we all face.
"Domino’s is at the heart of many communities across Ireland and we’re in a great position to deliver hot food, contact-free, to those who need it most.
"We’re now working closely with our partners at Feed The Heroes to deliver a further 100,000 slices of pizza to those on the frontline.
"We may not be saving lives, but we’re proud to play a small part in the national effort by feeding our communities and helping the nation stay safe at home.”
