Food left in lying-in-state queue donated to charity
Chief executive Charlotte Hill said: "We are honoured to be here to play a small part in this hugely poignant event and to know that an extra layer of good is being done here.
"This food is a hugely unique donation and will help hundreds of people who are struggling to afford to eat. "We support thousands of organisations helping a huge range of people and every day more are getting in contact asking us to give them food." The charity got involved after being informed by Scouts, helping with the queue, that a lot of food was being thrown away.
Deputy UK chief commissioner of the Scouts CJ Ledger told the BBC: "We're really proud to be helping others in the community as well."PA Media
