When donating to a food bank, many of us may think of giving pasta or tinned food. š„«
Though this food is appreciated, our food banks are also in need of some more unexpected, but essential items.
Here's six unexpected things you can donate to your local food bank ⤵ļø
Hello! We are working on a campaign.

More than 6 in 10 working-age people referred to food banks in early 2020 were disabled. The Gov needs a plan to end the need for food banks recognising the experiences of disabled people. Read more in our latest #StateOfHunger blog now> bit.ly/3hhFo43
Thinking of donating to your local #foodbank this week? Make sure to check their website first to see what supplies they need most. You can find your nearest one here > trusselltrust.org/find-a-fooā¦
Thereās just no words for this. Who is deciding to provide this food instead of a voucher?? So that families starve. Because they donāt trust them to spend money on food. This is despicable. Itās a pandemic. Things are bad enough already. Show some respect.
We have so far raised £12k which we have been spending on stationery, study books and laptops for vulnerable families but the request keep on coming @Linkey_UK /2 #COVID19#homeschooling#donations#books
***Primary school book donations needed*** - we are looking for any retailers, publishers, authors who might be able to assist by donating any reading books, however small, to our campaign to help schools support vulnerable families who are homeschooling. /1
At @Linkey_UK we have organised for hundreds of homemade cookies to be delivered to the heroes at Barnet ITU for their staff well-being sessions and lots of chromebooks and laptops for vulnerable families at 2 schools in N. London. To donate : justgiving.com/crowdfunding/ā¦
Iām working with a group of volunteers to try to get educational resources and stationery into the homes of vulnerable children who are lacking text books, laptops and just basic pens, rulers etc.
Do I know anyone here with stationery contacts who could donate any items? RT
We wanted to take a moment to say a big and heartfelt thank you to everyone who has supported us in 2020. We think you are all amazing, and without your support, nothing would be possible. Thank you.
