Many thanks to everybody that donated items over the festive period, and to our amazing volunteers for all your hard work. Last year our Foodbank provided many local people with a vital lifeline and particularly during Christmas.
Here’s what it means to a few of those clients…
“This year has been extremely tough for me. Losing my Nan was incredibly tough and I had saved all year for Christmas when the clutch on my car went and took all my savings. At this tough time Borehamwood Foodbank has been a Godsend. Thank you to all the volunteers that have helped me through this tough time.”
“I am a single mum on a low income, my daughter is 10 months old and my father who we live with is terminally ill. Thank you for making our Christmas a bit brighter this year. Thanks to your hard work it feels like a great Christmas.”
“I’m in a bad situation worrying about when I can get the next shop in. The food will keep me going for a while – thanks.”
“Being able to come here has been a Godsend as I have been struggling financiall due to benefit cuts. The people that work here are so kind and helpful… I really appreciate what everyone does to help me.”
“Without these people I don’t know what I would have done. I am so thankful – they do a fantastic job.”
