Greenwich Food Bank - donations


This morning we drove the school mini-bus to Eltham to deliver all of the donations everyone kindly gave to the Greenwich Food Bank Appeal. 

The donations were greatly received by a gentleman called Stuart. He explained that the number of donations has been lower than usual at this time of year, particularly for basic toiletries, such as toilet rolls, shampoo and soap.

Stuart explained that volunteers at the food bank warehouse in Eltham divide up the donations into boxes; small boxes for people living on their own and couple; larger boxes for families. These boxes are then transported to various distributions centres around the Greenwich Borough.

We managed to donate a massive amount of items, so everyone at school would like to say an equally massive thank you.
