Mozza, based on Renfield Street, joined up with the Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity to mark International Nurses Day.

Kirsten Sinclair, from the charity, said: "While life has slowed down for many of us during the Covid-19 crisis, life in Glasgow’s children’s hospital, neonatal and maternity units has not.

"We would like to thank the Mozza team for their generosity, and for helping us celebrate the heroic efforts of nursing staff who continue to go above and beyond for young patients at this challenging time."

Mozza boss Sep Marini said: "The NHS staff are doing an amazing job to save lives and safeguard our communities and we wanted to thank them in a small way for all their incredible efforts."
