CHRISTMAS – A REVIEW!

Christmas is a busy time of year for everyone – there are presents to buy, cards to write, a tree to decorate and a turkey to eat. A lot of work for one person, a lot of fun when its done with someone else!

Bournemouth Foodbank had a busy Christmas, but it was only possible with a lot of help from our friends…

THERE WERE PRESENTS!

Bournemouth Foodbank celebrated Christmas this year by giving out over 200 hampers to local families and supported housing projects. The equivalent of about 12,600 meals were delivered to people’s doorsteps by a fleet of 60 drivers – all in one day!

The hampers were accompanied by fresh and frozen food and a message of hope from the Bible.

17 local churches partnered with us along with numerous businesses, agencies and community groups to help make this all possible.

All in all it has been a huge amount of fun and we are so grateful for all the help we have been given.

A massive thank you and happy new year to all our friends and supporters! We couldn’t have done all this without you.
