CHRISTMAS WITH ACTION PANTRY
Research shows nearly 1 million children under the age of 11 will face Christmas without a warm home or fresh food in the UK. These are heartbreaking numbers with poverty on the rise.
We are aiming to provide over 300 families in the UK with food parcels and small gifts. You can join us in several ways:
1. Collect items from our wish list. Items can be delivered to us from Monday to Friday 10am to 3pm at The Jubillee Centre, Lower Bristol Road BA2 9ES
2. Open a collection point. If you are connected to a school, business, church or group you can set up a collection point to encourage others to give food items. We can send you all the materials and information you’ll need.
3. Make a cash donation online. Don’t forget to select Action Pantry when you complete the giving form.
