The pressure on the resources of Gateshead Foodbank has shown no sign of letting up following the easing of COVID-19 restrictions in the summer. They are still seeing an increase in demand, and any support that they can get from the community is invaluable.

Just £1 can allow the amazing volunteers at the Foodbank to provide an advent calendar for one child. They will also use any donations to help put together hampers so that families who struggle to make ends meet can still put food on the table during the festive season.

Anything you can spare would be amazing and will go a long way to ensuring that those in need get a bit of help towards the end of 2021. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thanks as always for your support.
