GIFT AID APPEAL!

As we are now in our new financial year we are trying to open up new avenues of income. Did you know that we are registered for Gift Aid with HMRC. We have been catching up on Gift Aided donations from the past 4 years. If you are a UK tax payer and have items to donate we would appreciate your support we can claim an extra 20% of your donations value. Gift Aid forms are available at the till. As times get harder for individuals we are in more demand to help – yet at this time donations decrease. Our foodbank supports an average 400 people each week. This is entirely done using money raised through the charity shop. We need your help and support more than ever.

MESOPOTAMIA CHRISTMAS APPEAL

At this time of year we are thinking more and more about those who we help each week through our foodbank and other projects. Christmas has become increasingly difficult for many of the parents who seek our help. Throughout the year we have managed to put aside funds and have purchased some incredible colouring books for Father Christmas to deliver. However, we do need some help. Could you spare a few pounds and help us by purchasing some pencils or felt tips for children who are in need this Christmas? We have over 200 children who we help to have a gift under the tree on Christmas Day. Next time you are shopping if you could pop a packet into your basket we will ensure that it will go to a child in need to open on Christmas Day.

A Combined Effort!

Often we are gifted items by companies or individuals along with an apology that ‘Its not much’. Last weekend we grouped together some of these donations to make up hygiene bags. These were sent out alongside our food parcels to those who struggling with hygiene poverty. We would like to thank IN KIND DIRECT, COLLECTECO, JAMBONS WAREHOUSE, NHS TRUST BRADFORD, AMAZON, UPLANDS and DEBENHAMS. Each of whom have enabled us to help over 200 people.
