The charity wanted to recognise the support they received from Dan and form a lasting partnership with the foundation set up in his name.

Fans Supporting Foodbanks and The Dan Kay Foundation share a common aim to spread kindness, tackle stigma around mental health and reach out to those in our community who feel left behind or need both practical and emotional support.

The launch day of the Day Kay Foundation Food Pantry in Walton, saw service users offered a free shop to mark the occasion and pay tribute to the popular journalist and Hillsborough campaigner, who died in May 2023.

Fans Supporting Foodbanks Chair and co-founder Dave Kelly said: “We run eight food pantries across Liverpool and the other seven operate in conjunction with local community groups and have a name and identity. Walton didn't have that.
