Halloween Celebrations Help a Rise in Food Donations
Date Published: 05/11/2020 | Blog category: Other
Our colleagues on the front-line really got behind this year's Halloween celebrations by dressing up, cake making, offering free goodies and treats, along with colouring competitions, pumpkin carving and lot of other in-store activities across the region.
The Southern Membership & Community Council were on hand to support the stores by taking the opportunity to promote our food banks and talk to members and customers about how their donations make a difference to their communities. as a result of this, Food Banks saw a major uplift in the donations received from the weekend.
