Thread: Poverty in the UK

27th October 2013 #31What is sad these days, is that the previous tradition of taking care of your own elderly relatives seems to have been lost. Too many selfish people around.

Congratulations to Tesco’s who have recognised that there IS a problem in the UK and they are doing something about it! Tesco ran an advertisement advising that they will be collecting non-perishable food items for the Food Bank this weekend and matching 30% of the donation. It’s great to see that Tesco is acting as a responsible organisation and helping others in need (just as they did with their bucket collections last month for the Philippines Typhoon Disaster). I am not a fan of Tesco’s but I applaud them for this and would like to see more of the same.
I purposely went to my local store yesterday and bought a carrier bag full of food, as did my partner. My son often visits food banks in a professional capacity and he will be buying a carrier bagful today too.
Before the less charitable start slating the above as an un-needy cause, I would add that I have made 3 sizeable donations to the Philippines Disaster Fund and I have also sent a large food parcel for Christmas to my sponsor child’s family in Smokey Mountain, Tondo. The bulk of my donations have gone to Philippines but I recognise that there are people in this country that do need help too and Every Little Helps!
