'Courageous' women behind mystery parcels dropped in bus stops

The people behind mystery food parcels at bus stops in Liverpool have been found.

Andrew Dobie, 38, "thought it was a nice gesture" and wondered who was behind it until he saw a post in a Facebook group - Speke Past and Present - echoing his curiosity. One commenter shared a link to Helping L24, a group run Ashley Jones and Teri-Ann Carnall.

The two 31-year-olds started the parcel drops in Speke on a whim one "cold" and "gloomy" night a few weeks ago. Ashley told the ECHO: "It was cold one evening and I'd been sorting the cupboard for Christmas. I had a few tins of soups and stuff, and I was going to the shop, so I said, 'You know what, I'll leave a few in the bus stop, see if anyone needs them'. I left them and I went back a couple of hours later and they'd gone."
