It’s harvest time… can you support our appeal with donations?

10th October 2024

It’s harvest time… and we need harvest donations more than ever as our October stats show.
Total number of food parcels: 1013, a 26% increase
Number of adults: 652, a 14% increase
Number of children: 361, a 54% increase

This comes after a busy summer. August was not a happy holiday for our clients. 63% more children were in need of emergency food support during the summer holidays. This increase means individuals, real people, are going hungry and just don’t have enough to cover the essentials.

Are you able to help donate our most needed items this harvest time?
• Soup (Tinned)
• Cooking sauces (Long-life)
• Fruit Juice (Long-life)
• Milk (Long-life)
• Fruit (Tinned)
• Tuna (Tinned)
• Meat (Tinned)
• Vegetarian meals (Tinned)
• Vegetables (Tinned)
• Rice pudding (Long-life)
• Deodorant
• Shampoo
• Toothbrushes & Toothpaste
• Toilet rolls
• Washing-up liquid

You can donate to our warehouse or instore at our permanent collection points or online via For Common Good or make a financial donation.
