Wing’s collection for the Rutland Food Bank


This year I am making a collection for the Food Bank over the next few weeks and aiming to take it to them at the end of January. The village hall has kindly agreed that I can leave a collection box there and I will have a box in the porch of my house

4 Top Street, Wing, LE15 8SE

I will be at The Spirit of Christmas at the village hall on Dec 2nd so you can bring goodies there too.

I have been in touch with the food bank and these are the items that they are most in need of (they have a good stock of pasta, baked beans, breakfast cereal, teabags, pasta sauce). The toiletries and sanitary supplies are the most needed items. Any food products must have at least a 3 month shelf-life.

 

Toiletries, eg toilet rolls, toothbrushes, toothpaste, shower gel, shampoo, soap, washing up liquid, nappies and sanitary products.

Food items  Sponge puddings,    Rice pudding,  Jam, Coffee, UHT milk,  Ambient/long life fruit juice

So, WING, come on and PLEASE be GENEROUS
