Who this task will support
Hope Centre Derby
Our food bank seeks to provide a three-day emergency food parcel for those who are in need. We receive our food from different places around Derby – individuals, schools, businesses, churches and other charities all contribute to helping people in crisis. We are thankful for any donation, whether it be food (long shelf life and in date) or money – the more we receive, the better we can ensure we can fill the food parcels all year round.


We're meeting at our regular Tuesday night location (Leonardo Hotel) to litter pick in the city centre as we make our way to the Hope Centre (Curzon Street) to donate much needed items to their foodbank.

We'll be setting off from Leonardo Hotel at 7pm to be at the Hope Centre foodbank for 7.30pm. We'll drop off our donations and continue to litter pick in the city centre and be back at the Leonardo Hotel for around 8-8.30pm

Please wear some protective gloves for litter picking (gardening ones are ideal).

Please bring any donations in a backpack that you can carry yourself as we walk to the foodbank. Here's a list of items that the foodbank are in need of.

Please sign up if you're planning to attend and also remove yourself from the register if you can no longer make it - so I know who to look out for and don't leave without anyone.

The later than usual start time of this Tuesday night session is based on when we can have access to the building to drop off items for the foodbank.
