At the Gospel Centre we are carrying out a survey of their parents / carers to find out about how we can develop what we can offer as a food bank to children. We mange to obtain fresh vegetables and bread where we can to give out, but our facilities and resources to store are more limited in this area.

The Food Network which I have mentioned is currently looking for a longer term large store area, which can be used for non-perishable and fresh food storage. Please email me if you now of a suitable large space at gospelcfoodbank@gmail.com

We are fairly wells stocked at present, though would especially gladly accept donations of standard size packet rice, tinned soup, juice, baked beans, jams and washing materials.
