1) Is 9 people enough to justify a publicly funded soup kitchen?
2) Is it really actually true that there are only 9 homeless people in MANCHESTER???????

You should check out www.simoncommunity.org.uk.
We have been doing Soup Runs for the past 40 years and have been asked many times to stoop handing out food or cloth.
We are still doing it.
