We have been overwhelmed with the amount of Christmas gifts and food that have been received over the last weeks so much so that we would prefer not to receive any more this year.
As ever the food bank store despite receiving almost 3 tonnes of food during the Harvest season would still like to receive certain specific items as detailed below:
We would especially like to receive
- Powdered milk
- Long life milk
- Instant mash potato
- Chocolate and sweets
- Toilet rolls
- Washing powder
Please do NOT donate the following, which we have in abundance:
- Soup
- Tomatoes
- Baked Beans
- Spaghetti
- Fish
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All donations of food and toiletries should be taken to Waitrose or Romsey Abbey from where our team will collect them. Our warehouse is unable to take individual donations at the moment.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Items should have a “use by date” more than 3 months away, and we find that items in small boxes or soft packets are easier to pack into the food parcels.
