    Hi @jam1983 I'm so sorry to hear you need help with food. The only links I have would be for the Trussel Trust food banks, I don't know if you've tried them already? They may also be able to suggest someone local to try.

    Hi jam, I suggest any large supermarket tomorrow with whatever loose change you can find. The food will be marked down. Ask somebody to help you pay or speak to a member of staff.

    Nobody wants you to be hungry tonight or tomorrow. I notice takeaway shops giving away hot food before they close. A church or community centre is another possibility for a hot meal if you can google your area.

    Hi @jam1983, I'm sorry to read the predicament you're in.

    Look up to see if there is a soup kitchen, Foodcycle or something similar near you. Good luck, I really hope you find something.
