Story
We are Siobhan and Lisa - also known as French 75 in vintage circles! - and we've pledged to support the Rutland Foodbank throughout 2021, both with donations and awareness.
Until lockdown and Covid-19 restrictions in 2020, we did a personal shop for the foodbank each month, shopping for the items most needed at the time - since lockdown we have switched our shopping to donations via this page instead. We're grateful to many friends, colleagues and family who also donate to us regularly to boost our fundraising, as well as Intercity Technology, which also supports us with donations.
In April 2020 we started #oakhambookswap - a doorstep book swap box for the community - and money starting popping through the letterbox as a result! So, if you like what we're doing there and wish to donate having taken some free books you can do so here :-)
We have a few fundraising ideas for 2021 that we hope will be possible - we'll share more about those as soon as possible.
£625 was raised during 2020.
