Founder of food bank told by council she can no longer make hampers from her home

The founder of a food bank who was honoured for her community work by local authorities just 18 months ago has now been told by the same council that she can no longer make food hampers for those in need from her own home.

Kind-hearted mum-of-one Ashling Lowe has selflessly been making up to 20 food hampers a week for families in need across Meath since 2017 from generous public donations of non-perishable items.
