and live on Freeview channel 276
As well as donating more non-perishable food such as canned goods and pasta, the supermarket chain has said it will run its bakery, egg and fruit and vegetable packing sites for an extra hour every day to make, prepare and pack food required to restock the food banks.
And to make it easier for customers to donate to food banks in store, bosses have also agreed raise purchase limits on products from three items to four, and remove some altogether.

Hide AdNic Cox, Morrisons Chesterfied community champion, said: “As a food maker and shopkeeper we are uniquely placed to help.
“We know food banks are finding life very difficult and running our manufacturing sites for an extra hour each day to help restock them is the right decision at this time.”
