Autumn Appeal
Throughout the year, we give out over 100 emergency food parcels to
people in difficulty in the local area who have been referred to us by
national and charitable agencies. We
rely heavily on harvest donations from local schools, churches and
community organisations to stock our cupboards, but this year our
supplies are running low because of an increase in the number of
referrals we have received.
As
autumn approaches, we would be very grateful for any donations of food
or money which we can use to stock our shelves.
Due to storage restrictions, we are unable to accept fresh or
frozen foods and we would ask that you check the use-by date on all
donated items. Below is a list
of the kinds of items which we need and items which unfortunately we are
unable to distribute.
