This year’s appeal involved a series of 12 tasks for people to give back over the Christmas period. The challenge saw members of the community give back something small every day, such as collecting a box of Christmas chocolates to donate to the foodbank.

The foodbank also encouraged donations that consisted of items such as food and toiletries. The donations were then used to put together Christmas hampers for the recipients.

Kimberley Benson, Sales and Marketing Director for David Wilson Southern Counties, commented: “Christmas is a difficult time for many members of the community so we at David Wilson Southern Counties wanted to help as much as we could to alleviate any stress over this period. The pandemic has seen a large increase in foodbank usage indicating the necessity of this support, so we hope our donation helped bring some relief and Christmas joy during this time of giving.”
