Charity workers slapped with parking fines while serving breakfast to homeless

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Charity volunteers have slammed the council after being repeatedly hit with parking fines while serving breakfast to the homeless.

Kim Law says herself and other volunteers have received around 'half a dozen' penalty notices between them over the last year for leaving their cars in a loading bay on Oldham Street in the Manchester city centre.

It is one of only a few spots where cars can be left near Mosiac Cafe, where workers serve breakfast for those in need with homeless charity Lifeshare.

The group have tried to leave letters on their windscreens explaining the situation - but constantly come back to find parking charge notices issued, Manchester Evening News reports.
