HOLIDAY FOOD CLUB – SUMMER 2019

This year we provided 425 meal parcels to 88 families who have free school meals during term time on four Thursdays during August. Parcels contained fresh and non perishable food. Families were also able to stay for tea/coffee/cake and a chat and feedback tells us this was highly valued.

We have been supported by charitable trusts, churches and individuals with donations, cakes and volunteer time. We raised about £10000 and spent around £9000 so have money left to provide support at Christmas.

Feedback indicated that many families would have struggled without our help and others indicated that money saved on food enabled them to have the small treats which many of us take for granted.
