Run your own REVERSE ADVENT CALENDAR this winter!
Hackney Foodbank is running its Reverse Advent Calendar again this year - urging households to donate our most-needed items for people in crisis this winter. We are currently supporting on average 660 people per week with emergency food parcels and practical advice/support. From August - October this year, we have seen a 70% increase in demand compared to the same period last year. Please support us this winter.
Ideally, we’d love to receive donations by Monday December 16th to give us time to include them in our emergency food parcels. The calendar below includes our most-needed items but we’d welcome some non-perishable festive treats for our visitors too. Please ensure all donations are in-date with use-by dates visible.
You can order and deliver these items straight to us via our website here: https://www.hackney.foodbank.org.uk/give-food
Alternatively, you can drop donations at the Hackney Foodbank Warehouse, Wally Foster Community Centre, Homerton Rd, London, E9 5QB, Mon - Fri 8.30am - 2pm.
Our warehouse will be closed from December 25th and will re-open on January 2nd.
Please book a time slot to drop the items to us on our website here: https://www.hackney.foodbank.org.uk/donate#donatefood
