Anyway, St Thomas Food Fight are serving hot food & drinks tomorrow morning (New Year's Day) on Cowick Street, opposite the Post Office. 11:30am to 12:30pm Everyone welcome, not only the homeless. We will be providing free warm hats, gloves, scarves & socks too. And mince pies

Does anyone know why Torbay Council has triggered their Severe Weather Emergency Protocol (SWEP), but Exeter City Council @ExeterCouncil hasn't? It's freezing out there. 🥶🌨️💨 And with the wind chill it's even worse.

.@lovefoodcic is open again after the #Easter break - and there’s plenty of #FreeFood available in the #CommunityFridge… #LoveFoodCIC (@ 95 #CowickStreet) is open Monday-Thursday, 10am to 3pm… #FoodHub #CommunitySupport #Exeter

Always great to help @StThomasFood in #CowickStreet on a Sunday morning (we normally operate from 11:30am-12.30pm, although today we were around for a little longer). We’ve left some food bags out for those in need. #StThomas #Exwick #FreeFood #CommunitySupport #CommunityMatters

Absolutely 🥶 out today, which meant helping out with the Coffee & Tea and offering a listening ear at @StThomasFood was more important than ever. This sweet & gentle 🐶 was after some love too ❤️ #StThomas #Exwick #Community #CommunitySupport #ActionNotWords

Always good to help out at @StThomasFood on a Sunday morning… On hot drinks duty this morning! Good to leave some bags with #FreeFood behind outside former NatWest Bank in #CowickStreet this lunchtime for anyone who’s in need of it… #StThomas #WestExe #Exwick #Exeter

With early January temperatures plummeting well below freezing over the coming nights, Exeter City Council has introduced extra measures to bring rough sleepers indoors.

Well done to @LizShinn63, Helen, Mary Ann, Danni and all the kind people who donated to make this happen 🙂⭐

Students and staff donated to a collection table ran by our HCP faculty. This food is going to @StThomasFood, a charity that provides hot food for those in need. The team of volunteers will provide extra meals over the holiday period. #ExeCollProud | #12DaysofKindness

The physical hardships of #homelessness are self-evident – but often it’s the hidden stories of family breakdown, trauma, loneliness, & loss of hope that are hardest to bear. #Exeter #homelessness #charity buff.ly/496DDRT
