Shopping and the Foodbank

26th May 2017

ambrosia_creamed_rice_puddingfruitIf you happen to be out shopping this weekend and you can spare a can or two of fruit, custard or rice pudding please drop it into one of our collection boxes in local supermarkets and stores.  There are local families in current crises who would be most grateful to you.

All our clients come to us only after they have been referred by professional organisations who have identified them as being in real need.   Contrary to some views expressed in the local press recently they are not ‘Scroungers’.

Each week our volunteers give hundreds of hours of their time to channel the food you donate to help those clients.

Do you really think they would do this if they believed the recipients were scrounging?
