“I'd urge people who do have extra money to think about the families who have no food in the cupboards," Shelley said. "I’ll never forget, during lockdown, I dropped off a food parcel and a neighbour stuck her head out the window and said she had no food."And when you take a food parcel to a family with kids, the kids jump up and down.
