Sir Stephen Fry says he deeply empathises with the displaced and homeless people being supported by our winter appeal with Comic Relief, saying that he, too, knows what it’s like to feel “invisible”, “utterly alone” and “hoping desperately for a hand to reach out”.
For celebrity chef Andi Oliver, it’s the people who suffer from food poverty that she finds most “heart-breaking” — because even more than being hungry, “it’s about being in a constant state of fear that you can’t feed your children”. And Sir Sadiq Khan also endorses our campaign, calling on the public to “remember those facing this winter without the simple comforts many of us take for granted”.
