We're so grateful for support to The Community Dinner Fund, the #socialproject we're co-facilitating w/ @FoodFriendsUK & @umbrellacentre. @LeighsFound is helping us by contributing produce. We're adding in the breakfast boxes next week after consultation with our beneficiaries.

Picking and packing my contribution to the new ‘Breakfast Boxes’ being offered by the amazing teams @FoodFriendsUK and @umbrella_cafe.
