I've raised £1500 to support food bank users by giving them envelopes of Lewes Pounds
Organised by Susan Murray
The Lewes Pound wants to give local food bank users some more control over their own lives and enable them to enjoy some of the small treats that many of take for granted. Baked beans and tins of soup may keep them and their families alive, but they are missing out on some of the small pleasures in life. That might be a coffee out, a trip to the cinema, decent butchers sausages or books for the grandkids. Tese are just some of the things that previous recipients of envelopes of Lewes Pounds from our Donate-a-Drink scheme have spent them on.
