2 runners helped to keep the flow of food moving for vulnerable people around Birmingham. John packed food for people in hotels around the city, while Stephen filled bags for people and families isolating in their homes. The big difference between the two is that the people in hotels have very limited access to cooking facilities, so their bags need to be appropriate for their conditions. It will be interesting to see how the foodbank develops over the period of lockdown, as TAWS step up again to fight hunger in these difficult times.
