Meals of Mercy: Winter Appeal

Together, We Can Bring Warmth and Hope This Winter.

This winter, thousands of vulnerable people in our communities face an impossible choice: heat or eat. The government’s recent decision to means-test winter fuel payments will strip critical support from nearly 10 million pensioners, pushing an additional 100,000 into poverty by 2026. Many already struggling to make ends meet will be left in the cold, both literally and figuratively.

At Rumi's Kitchen, we see this crisis firsthand. Every day, hundreds of pensioners walk through our doors to escape the biting cold, and those sleeping rough look to us for a warm meal and a moment of reprieve. The soaring cost of living has forced countless individuals and families into unimaginable hardship, making our support more critical than ever.

This is where the Meals of Mercy: Winter Appeal comes in—a grassroots initiative committed to ensuring no one in our community goes hungry or cold this winter. By providing warm, nutritious meals and essential support, we aim to bring comfort and compassion during the harshest months of the year.
