An elderly man turned up at his local breakfast club after he hadn't eaten for four days as the cost of living crisis continues to grip the country.
Donna Scully, who volunteers at the Charles Thompson Mission in Wirral, said the man came in when he couldn't make ends meet.
The lawyer wrote on Twitter : "Oh god it’s getting so bad. At breakfast club there were more people with accommodation than homeless, but who can’t eat and pay energy bills."
