Visit from Wellingborough Lions Club September 2020
On Saturday 19 September 2020, the President of Lions Club of Wellingborough and Lions member Karam Bharaj came to visit us to give us letters and certificates of appreciation for the food parcel project the organisation has been doing since April 2020. To date we have delivered over 420 parcels to households in Northampton. This has been made possible from grants from Northamptonshire Community Foundation, Northampton Borough Council and the National Lottery (for the purchase of non food essentials). We also receive weekly donations of fresh fruit, vegetables, bread, bakery treats and more from Bags of Food in St James. These items enable us to add to the African food items we pack and deliver to various households in Northampton and Wellingborough.
