Edinburgh North East Foodbank

FOODBANK DONATIONS NEEDED URGENTLY

We’re delighted to announce that we’re partnering with the fantastic Edinburgh North East Foodbank to act as a socially-distanced hub for food bank donations. Edinburgh North East Foodbank do amazing work in the local area and are part of the Trussell Trust network of foodbanks. You can find out more about their work right here: https://edinburghne.foodbank.org.uk/

At the time of writing this, we find ourselves in a particularly uncertain and unpredicted situation. With winter creeping in and Christmas just around the corner, this is a really tough time for so many folk. More and more people are being forced to turn to a food bank for help, so we are in turn, turning to you for help.

If you’re nearby or find yourself in the area, please swing by and drop us any of the following items:

TINS OF MEAT, FISH, FRUIT, VEG
RICE PUDDING, CUSTARD, DESSERTS ETC

TEA/COFFEE/UHT MILK
LONG LIFE FRUIT JUICE

MEN’S TOILETRIES

We’ll gladly accept other items but the above is what is particularly needed right now. Please ensure long use by dates, no perishables etc. Any questions, give us a call on 0131 561 4267. We’ll collect the donations and drop them off safely, where they’ll be quarantined for 72 hours before being dispatched to those in need. Generous donations will be rewarded…
