answer text <p>This offer is an emergency response to a very fast-moving situation, to support those in greatest medical need. Some of the boxes may contain some products that are not permitted culturally or for faith reasons by some groups.</p><p>In the standardised box which is delivered to individuals there is an A4 note which explains that should the individual have any allergies or religious/cultural dietary requirements and are not able to eat some of the food and feel that the remaining contents of the package are not enough to provide food for 1 week, they should contact their local authority.</p><p>The packages include tinned meat and tinned tuna, but as the product is packaged there is no risk of individuals having to touch foodstuffs that are unsuitable.</p> more like this
