A mother who posted a photo on social media of a food parcel she received has told of the “sense of sadness” she felt on seeing what it contained.
The mother, who wants to be anonymous, told the BBC: “As I unpacked that food parcel… and looked at the contents, it felt very sad and depressing.”
Chartwells, the firm which supplied the parcel, has apologised.
