Containment has a very strong impact on the homeless and the most vulnerable. Closed shops, begging made almost impossible, so eating becomes more and more complicated.
Faced with this situation, Restos du Coeur adapted their distribution. It is now a question of bringing emergency aid. Théa, a volunteer with the association for five years, says: “The objective is to avoid gatherings at all costs to limit contacts. […] We have moved to takeout meals ”
On Place de la République, the queue in front of the Restos du Coeur truck is several hundred meters. This evening, 300 packed lunches were distributed, an increase of 30% compared to the previous week.
