A struggling mum issued an urgent plea as she was left without food to feed herself or her daughter. The mum took to social media after realising her cupboards were basically bare.
She said she had been unable to claim food bank vouchers to get help. The mum explained she didn't drive and couldn't get help from anyone.
Families rallied around and were able to help the woman. Less than 30 minutes after she asked on social media, she had more than 30 people offering to help, reports The Echo.
The woman's post said: "Really financially struggling at the moment, me and my little girl have no food and can't get any help off anyone. Can't get a food bank voucher as had six in the past couple of months.
"If anyone could drop off to L8 as I don't drive please. Thank you in advance, we eat pretty much everything and need blue milk for my little girl we're so grateful for anything my fridge freezer is practically empty not much left in cupboards."
People from across Liverpool offered to drive to the mum's house and drop off not only the essentials but also chocolate goodies for the little one. The woman thanked her fellow neighbours.
She edited her post a couple of hours later, and said: "I've been helped off people now. Thank you. I am turning the comments off now."
