Morrisons is giving away free hot meals to hungry customers who say a discreet phrase

MORRISONS is giving away free hot meals to hungry Brits who are struggling to get by.

Customers can walk in to any of the supermarket's hundreds of cafes from tomorrow (October 26) and get a jacket potato and beans at no cost.

Morrisons and Heinz are offering the help to anyone who needs it using a discreet phrase.

People just need to "ask for Henry" to get a warm meal, no questions asked.

The move comes as millions of people are struggling with rocketing energy bills and rising food prices in the cost of living crisis.

The ask for henry phrase comes from the name of the founder of the food brand, Henry J Heinz.

Jojo De Noronha, Heinz's boss in Northern Europe, said they wanted to honour the founder by "helping feed people in times of need".

She said: "We believe everyone deserves the goodness, comfort and warmth a can of Heinz Beanz can bring, and whilst we know it doesn’t fix the problem, we hope our ‘ask for Henry’ initiative can be of some help at this difficult time for many, particularly over half term.”

There's no eligibility for the free food - anyone can ask for it. But it will only be available until stocks last

The pair are giving away more than 160,000 meals at the supermarket's nearly 400 store cafes.

You'll need to "ask Henry" at the till point of the cafe, and there's a limit of one meal per day.

You can find your nearest one on the Morrisons website using the store locator tool.

It's not the only supermarket offering free and cheap food for those in need.

Asda is doing a hot meal for just £1 at its 205 cafes for those aged over 60.

Both supermarkets are also doing half-term offers for kids to eat for less.

A child under 16 can eat for free at Morrisons cafés when you buy an adult meal worth at least £4.99.

Kids can eat for just £1 at all Asda cafes across England and Wales, all day every day.

Tesco is also renewing its Kids Eat Free offer this October half-term.

Kids can eat for free in all 311 Tesco cafes between October 17 and 28 in England and Scotland.
