The 22-year-old has helped to raise million of pounds with charity FareShare UK to supply meals to families who are "existing on a knife"s edge" and written an open letter to MPs to reconsider the decision to cancel the government"s food voucher scheme over the summer holidays.

It"s very important for me to help people who are struggling"
