The Gospel Centre Food Bank bringing help through the suffering

Your local Food bank saw a record 44 visitors receive food for 145 people in their households. Not surpisingly, our volunteers had to stay long past 1pm to serve people. So our biggest challenge for this is in ensuring that in our short turn round to opening on Tuesday evening that we get sufficient food in to be able to operate to acceptable levels on Tuesday. By shopping on a Monday helps to achieve this as do your donations.

At present we need standard packets of rice, cereals, long life milk, biscuits, fruit juice and dried foods.

All through this pandemic, the foodbank,  has liaised regularly with the church office, its leaders over a finance system, use of space and storage amongst some. Behind this is a church community. It consists not just those who tune into a 'live link' on a Sunday or who will come back in person on the 7th March, but others near and far who have connections, often through family. That is why when at this time the pandemic is still on and social distancing means restrictions to meeting that death and illness are felt more acutely. Like many communities The Gospel Centre has had quite a few. A time of mourning too continues for many outside too as we at the food bank are only to conscious of. By our work we know that our work is about more than food as we bring a little light at this tough time for so many.
