ONE of Britain’s leading rappers visited the Evening Standard’s social kitchen to help produce the extra meals to be distributed to combat food poverty this Christmas.

Stefflon Don, who won a Mobo award in 2017 for the best female act, applauded the “amazing” work being done at the kitchen, which is run by The Felix Project and was enabled by the donations of Evening Standard readers in our Food For London Now appeal.

The site in Tower Hamlets cooks and distributes 125,000 hot meals a month for vulnerable people and families in the capital.

This Christmas it is feared as many as one in three Londoners will consider resorting to a food bank to feed themselves and their families, making the work done at the kitchen more important than ever.
