A couple of weeks ago our Funeral Director Lesley and ADM Kelly visited St Pauls Foodbank and dropped off a donation. The donation was money raised from the Christmas faire they both attended at Whitworth School.
Both Lesley and Kelly were overwhelmed by how much support, guidance and care come from the foodbank volunteers to help those who are less fortunate. It was a fantastic setup and what a wonderful safe space to help those who need it. Lesley and Kelly were very humbled by the volunteers and would like to continue to support.
Well done to all the volunteers-you do an amazing job giving back to our community.
