Curry Rivel, Drayton and Hambridge Foodbank

Thanks for the photo Kathy!

Foodbank volunteers are raising money for the Food Bank by selling good quality garden plants, grown by a local resident and donated to the Foodbank to raise funds.

The plants for sale are outside number 3 East Street, Drayton (on the right when leaving Drayton towards Muchelney) and at Hillards Farm, High Street, Curry Rivel (opposite King William Lane, not far from the old Post Office).

There are suggested prices, but all donations are gratefully received.

As is all the lovely fresh produce people are bringing to the church each Wednesday. Volunteers will accept, sort and distribute same day – they are at the church between 10.30 and 11.30 every Wednesday morning.

Items most needed

But of course, the turnover is fast and the list never-ending, so here's your list for this week if you were thinking of popping something extra for the foodbank into your trolley.

• Kitchen roll & loo rolls
• Sugar
• Tinned ham & corn beef
• Tins of chicken in white sauce

As well as Wednesday mornings donations of non perishable items can be left at:

• there is also a box in the porch at St Catherine's Church, Drayton where you can leave non perishable goods at any time
• donations can be made at the One Stop shop in Curry Rivel – they have a box – just ask
