Care home residents being starved by Tesco
This was on BBC News today. A care home in Buxton with 25 residents usually would have a regular weekly delivery from Tesco. They spend around £1500 per week or £85k per year.
Last week they couldn't get a delivery slot. So they phoned Tesco to ask if they could be made a priority. Tesco said, they would be treated as a single household and were limited to 3 of any item.
The care home manager said to BBC News presenter Victoria Derbyshire, "How do I feed 25 people with 3 tins of baked beans and 3 bananas?"
