Reverse Advent Calendar 2023

With Christmas rapidly approaching we’re once again sharing our ‘Reverse Advent Calendar’. The idea is to create a hamper of food and other items – one item for each of the days in December in the run up to Christmas. We will distribute them after Christmas.

We need your support

We rely on the support of our local community for food donations, volunteering and finances. Can you help us stop UK hunger?
