Every year we spend over £30,000 providing meals and food parcels for people in need. It’s an enormous amount of money to raise, and it makes an enormous difference to the lives of many people.
We rely on financial support from individuals and organisations of all types – from churches and schools to clubs and businesses– nearly all of the money you donate goes straight to those who need it.
