Isolated elderly people were treated to slap-up meals to help them beat the winter blues.

Epsom and Ewell Foodbank and Age Concern Epsom and Ewell hosted the meals at Ruxley Church in Ewell on January 21 and the Epsom Club on January 30.

Foodbank volunteer Jonathan Lees said more than 50 people were invited to the Beat the Blues meals and Blenheim High School helped them with the cooking.

Mr Lees said: "The aim was to bring people together after Christmas at a time when people are often feeling more isolated and to talk to people about the food bank."
