Highgate Butchers

Binho and Lee from Highgate Butchers.

While Phyllis, Lee’s mum, has been self-isolating above the shop, Lee, Binho and Paula have “held the fort” brilliantly during the pandemic. Staying open throughout, working incredibly long hours (in regular times, Lee always gets up at 4am to go to the market) and making sure that we could feed our families with fresh meat.

Binho is originally from Brazil and has worked at Highgate Butchers for 12 years, while Lee has been on the shop floor for 25 years.
