 <h1> LBC listener sends &#39 what she can&#39  to man too poor to eat </h1>Evan BartlettDec 10, 2014
Just two days after LBC Radio received a distressing phone call from a man who said he could barely afford to eat, another listener has sent in money for him to buy food. Presenter James O&#39;Brien tweeted a picture of the note - from a woman only known as Emma - which accompanied two 50p coins and a stamp. The note reads:
Dear James O&#39;Brien,
I heard the broadcast on the radio re the man on benefits.
