A university student who set up the world's first "wonky bread" company during the coronavirus pandemic has joined forces with food suppliers to send 700 boxes of his business' goods to Poland, where it will be used to feed Ukrainian refugees fleeing their homes in the wake of Russia's invasion.
James Eid, from Hertfordshire, founded Earth & Wheat in March 2021 and this week, he sent nine pallets of wonky bread - which is simply made up of perfectly good bakery products that would otherwise be thrown away because they don't meet supermarket's high standards - to Przemysl, around six miles from Poland's border with Ukraine.
The 21-year-old student's donation is one of many from UK food suppliers who are coming together in response to the humanitarian crisis that has raged on since Russia first began their invasion on February 24.
