NOTTINGHAM-based charity, The Rosie May Foundation had fed almost 1000 people – following World Hunger Day on 28th May 2020.

Since Sri Lanka went into lockdown the charity has delivered 120 food parcels, the first drop of 30 food parcels being in April and the second earlier on this month.

Globally, one in nine people go hungry. Since the news that COVID-19 may double the number of people facing acute hunger and the World Health Organisation has advised that ‘more people will die of hunger than of COVID-19’ the charity has launched an Emergency Appeal and raised nearly £8000 in nearly two months.
