Donations
We provide food on a weekly basis for people within the community, this requires us to have a large source of food. We will gratefully receive food donated by people within our communities as well as supermarkets, stores and business in our community. We always welcome donations and promise to use them to provide help to adults and children in crisis. It’s natural that the first thing anyone thinks to donate to a food bank is food but toiletries and hygiene products are also extremely important and vital to families. Donations can be dropped at church, Monday – Thursday between 10 am and 4 pm.
