What a wonderful pre-Christmas 🎄Community Mission! We will be meeting at the Swindon Food Collective to help sort donations and prepare emergency food boxes ready for those in need at Christmas. A food bank in Swindon run by a team of 65 volunteers and one member of staff, they need our help unpacking and sorting stock recently donated by churches, schools, local companies and supermarkets.

Because of COVID 🦠 guidelines and limited space within the warehouse, the register has been set at 10 volunteers...so sign up sooner rather than later to guarantee yourself a space!

Please note that more information about the day will be sent to you once you have signed up.
