OQ Helen McCrory and husband Damian Lewis are spearheading an initiative, 'Feed NHS', to get hot meals to NHS staff fighting coronavirus on the front line.  Having discovered that certain hospitals did not have canteens for hard-working health workers, the actors decided to team up with fast food chains to get food to the front line, with the first delivery being made in London on Monday 30^th March.  Initially, Helen and Damian were sending in pizzas to their friends and colleagues in the NHS before realising the extent of the problem.  In live interviews on tv from their home in Suffolk, where they are in isolation with their family, Helen expressed that  one thing NHS staff said they needed was food, particularly with such excruciatingly long hours being worked.

With the Feed NHS campaign having started in London, they are also working with ‘NHS Charities Together’, with a view to extending the scheme’s reach nationwide.
