At a time when many are stocking up for Christmas and buying food like an apocalypse is about to descend, it is a sad fact in today’s world there are people in our neighbourhoods that are struggling for the basic need of food. So it made me so proud that one of our own, Lauren Tilly, came up with the idea of a food bank – for us all to donate food to people not as lucky as us so that they could feed their families over the Christmas period.
Thanks to your generous donations and Lauren’s great idea, over £150 worth of food was dropped off at the emergency food back in Chelmsford.
Thank you also to Catrin and Brendan for delivering the bundles of food that many of you so kindly donated – the food bank was thrilled and thanked us for our generosity.
