A Soup Kitchen in Dublin, run by a Kildare woman, is appealing to the HSE not to shut down its operation for breaching food safety regulations.
Volunteer Soup Runs says health and safety inspectors recently showed up when it was giving free meals to the homeless.
The food is donated to the group by people who make extra dinners at home.
Inspectors sent a letter to the group to say they were in breach of a number of food safety regulations and will face further inspections.
