Summary
We run a food bank every Thursday between 1.00pm and 3.00pm providing food parcels to individuals and families in the community.
Detailed description
Working in conjunction with the Trussell Trust, and other local churches, food parcels are distributed to numerous households each week. Additionally, the food bank provides emergency support to families in crisis, ensuring that no one goes hungry. Volunteers from the local community play a crucial role in packing and delivering these parcels, demonstrating the power of collective effort in addressing food insecurity.
