A charity that collects surplus food from shops and farms and shares it out, has urged people to help themselves to vegetables after being inundated with them.
Ali Thomas, from Shrewsbury Food Hub, revealed the group gathered about four tonnes, or 400 trays of food, on Christmas Eve alone from supermarkets and wholesalers.
“We have been completely inundated with vegetables,” she said.
The charity distributes to places such as domestic abuse safe houses, foodbanks and hospices, but everyone is invited to collect produce for themselves or their friends and neighbours with collection points open on Friday.
