Urgent: Deodorant, shampoo and other toiletries

In this really hot weather, there's a great need for non-food essentials. Don't forget the toiletries when donating to the Food Bank.

Everyone deserves the chance to keep themselves and their families clean and fresh this summer. Donate at the usual locations (local supermarkets and at Biggleswade Baptist Church - see pinned post)

Thank you for giving the gift of dignity.

In this hot weather, don’t take your daily shower for granted!

Could you help provide essential supplies for someone struggling to afford what they need for themselves and their family?

Could you commit to ‘sponsor a shower’ with the Food Bank? Buy shampoo, shower gel, deodorant or toothpaste every time you shop and donate them at the usual locations (local supermarkets and at Biggleswade Baptist Church - see pinned post)

Thank you for giving the gift of dignity

Think ahead for Easter weekend and the school holidays…

There are no food bank sessions on Good Friday (April 3rd) and Easter Monday (6th), so if you need to get a referral, please do so as soon as possible so that we can get you the support you need in time. Details of where to get a referral can be found in our highlighted posts.

If you are planning to donate food and other items (especially if they are Easter specific) please do so this week so that we can distribute them in our food bank sessions on Monday 30th March and Wednesday 1st April.

Thanks
