A Belfast foodbank is experiencing "extreme" pressures to provide food and support to those in need.
The People's Kitchen, based on the Antrim Road, has issued an urgent appeal to the public for donations of items from a number of categories. All donations can be dropped off to their building.
Formally St Patrick's Soup Kitchen Belfast, their mission is to "provide a safe and welcoming environment for individuals and families who are faced with homelessness and poverty with a focus on outreach in the community and on the street". And volunteers are feeling the stress as more families are in need of help.
