It may not have been the traditional first date. But a delivery run for welfare charity Gift a year ago set Mark Lewis and Dominique Levy on the road to true love — they have recently married.
“I was going through a really difficult time and he was doing deliveries for Gift,” recalled Mrs Lewis, 30,who works in property.
“Mark is unusual in that he is always thinking of others. We had just met at a Shabbat meal and were getting to know each other. He suggested one way of getting through a difficult time was by giving to other people. I hadn’t thought about it like that.”
