We’re launching our Easter Egg Appeal this week. In 2020 despite the beginning of lockdown we were able to distribute over 1,100 Easter eggs to Newham children through Newham Foodbank. This year we hope to exceed that number and get nearer to 5,000 eggs for distribution to families using the foodbank. We’ll also be supporting the efforts of Ambition Aspire Achieve in Canning Town with their appeal.
Drop off points in Beckton are at Tesco Gallions Reach, ASDA Tollgate Road and Waitrose Stratford Westfield. Otherwise we would welcome any donations at the link below. Just the cost of a pint or two will make such a difference for these kids who have had a tough 12 months during the various lockdowns.
Pleased to advise that Newham Foodbank distributed over 5,700 Easter eggs in time for today through their 7 centres. Deliveries were made to another 5 church foodbanks that we've teamed up with, stretching from Stratford to North Woolwich. There was also a donation made to the AAA Zone/Recorder Appeal.
We're grateful to so many for supporting us and for the donations made by the members of this forum.
