Rising costs and a lack of funding mean a Hull charity can no longer afford to cook and hand out subsidised meals to those who need them.
Environmental & Management Solutions (EMS) has distributed about 57,000 meals over the past seven years.
But its Freedom Food Ready Meals project, which has been funded since 2018 by the National Lottery and a number of smaller grants, is due to come to an end on 31 March.
Chief executive Jan Boyd said: "We have worked tirelessly over the last 18 months to secure longer-term funding to keep the project running [but] now – as awful as it sounds – without us some people might not be able to afford to feed their children.
