Over the summer holidays we supported a local Holiday Hunger scheme for many children and families in financial hardship. With the support from our business members, we volunteered their time to make and prepare pack lunches, 9,500 were made and delivered to 4,750 families across the city.
We cannot thank our business members enough for their generous and invaluable support that has made an enormous difference in our communities.
It was great being able to support such a wonderful initiative over the summer with the support of our businesses, whose help enabled us to get out so many pack lunches to disadvantaged young people. Thank you Louise for volunteering your time to support such a great cause!
