We are delighted to confirm that for an eigth year, we will once again be doing a Reverse Advent initiative, as a way of giving back to those less fortunate and in support of the Trussell network of food banks.

Food banks in the Trussell community distributed 2.9 million emergency food parcels in the past 12 months – equivalent to one parcel every 11 seconds.

This is an increase of 51% compared to five years ago

Over 1 million emergency food parcels went to children

As it has worked successfully in recent years, we have two options again this year: we’ll be asking everyone to make collections of non-perishable food at home and arrange to drop these off at a local drop-off point, or to consider making a financial donation.

Thank you so much to everyone for taking part and supporting this brilliant cause. Together we can make a real difference to those most in need this winter.
