National Food Bank Day: A van-full of support for local food banks

Every Christmas, we do a collection for our local food bank.

But this year, we want to do a little bit more... a van-full more, in fact!

One in five people in the UK are said to live below the poverty line, and many of them depend on their local food banks who supply them with meals.

So to mark National Food Bank Day today (September 7), we've launched our 2018 collection to gather as many non-perishable items as we can over the coming months.

Can I get involved?

Yes please!

Whether you’re cleaning out your cupboards or picking up a couple of extras in your weekly shop, donations can really make a big difference to the people who need it.

If you’d like to contribute, contact Zoe on 01792 818537 or email zoe@lowcostvans.co.uk
