A supermarket in Wimbledon will be asking shoppers to donate food items to those in need next week. 
Staff will be collecting donations of non-perishable foods for their food bank at Tesco Metro in Wimbledon town centre on Saturday, September 8. 
Marcus Bennett, Wimbledon’s food bank manager, said: "We know how tough it is for some families at the moment so we’re asking local people to give all they can.
"Giving a food box to parents whose child might otherwise go to bed hungry makes a huge difference, so if we can get the community to lend a helping hand, we can make sure no one in Wimbledon is forced to go hungry."
