A MEAL company is ensuring that homeless people in Hartlepool don't go hungry this Christmas.

Fresh The Meal Prep Co are supplying three-course Christmas lunches for more than 180 homeless with St Aidan’s Kitchen at St Aidans Church on the corner of Oxford street.

The meals will be available from noon to 2pm on Christmas Day.

The company is encouraging people to share the news on Facebook and said in a post: "We want to fuel the homeless and do our bit this year for Christmas and raise awareness in the region to help those who need it most."

Fresh is also donating ten per cent of this week's sales to St Aidan's to help future projects across Teesside.
