The Well Foodbank Another very big thank you for your kind and generous donators of food and toiletries for The Well, particularly when there are so many financial demands on us. We know how food etc is going up in price and what once was a cheap item to put in the trolley in church is becoming expensive. Should you be able to make a donation then the following are much in need: tinned peas, meat soups, long life milk, fruit drinks and juices, sanitary products, cleaning products, as ever large sized nappies, pasta sachets - when I finished my stint on Wednesday there were no toiletries at all!! - every contribution helps no matter how big or small. 'It is in giving, we receive'. Thank you again – Kay.
