Facebook post 31st May 2021

This week is volunteers week and so we want to recognise and celebrate the huge commitment many people have made to supporting Finchley Foodbank's work, with their time, energy, skills and knowledge.

Whether you collect, sort, divide, pack or hand out food or answer our dedicated telephone line, answer emails and create documents or help recruit new volunteers, we salute you and thank you.

We welcomed 6 new households to Finchley Foodbank this week.

This week we are short of:

- litre cartons of long life juice (not from the fridge)

- honey and jams

- UHT milk

- strong plastic bags

We have enough of everything else for this week, so if you can concentrate on these items that would be fabulous, so that we are able to give all of our clients these basic items.

Every donation makes a difference, big or small. Please check your donations are in date as we have vulnerable clients.

We are able to accept donations from members of the public on: Wednesday 10am-1pm & Friday 12-3pm in the church hall behind St Mary's Church, 279 High Road East Finchley N2 8HG.

Collection points are also available in the Sainsburys Local High Road East Finchley N2 and Martyn Gerrard 365 Regents Park Road N3.

Please observe the 2 metre distance rule whilst on the premises and try not to touch anything. To the left of the church is a drive way, walk down it and leave your donation on the table ahead of you. Please don't come inside the hall.

If you are in isolation, but want to support us we have an online giving page. https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/charity-web/charity/displayCharityCampaignPage.action?campaignId=13022
