A group of volunteers delivering food initiatives across Merseyside have seen a rise in requests from desperate people amid the cost of living crisis.
Liverpool Muslim Outreach Society is an organisation who have been providing food support to Merseyside's communities since 2018. But the society admits the recent cost of living crisis has seen a rise in demand for their services as they work not just in the Muslim community but for anyone who needs help in the region.
Tahir Khan, a trustee for the society, told the ECHO their immediate concern is trying to reduce the number of people suffering from food poverty. Mr Khan said: "The work we do is open to everybody - we don't discriminate on race or religion.
