Speaking to the BBC about the gesture, Mo said: "There's an atmosphere about Christmas that makes it very, very depressing for many, many people - being given something, being remembered, makes a lot of difference.”Mo continued: "I had reached number 35 on a street... but it had another 30 houses. Maybe there's someone in need?Each chocolate delivered came with a message of good will.
