Corby school donates dinner to homeless people in the town
Packed lunches were handed to the shelter
Corby Business Academy has sent more than 100 lunches to the town's homeless project.
The school on the Priors Hall estate had to shut down for a deep clean last week after it was discovered that a pupil had sadly contracted coronavirus.
So surplus food that had been prepared for students and staff was delivered to the town's night shelter to distribute to rough sleepers.
The homeless shelter in Dorking Walk, which can house up to 16 people, is currently full. The project works with each individual and assists them with their individual needs before moving them into sustainable accommodation.
