Lent 2024 Collection

During Lent we are asking if you, your school, your workplace, or your church could collect 40 items for the Foodbank and bring them to us for people who will need help over the Easter period and beyond.

Lent is the six weeks (40 days not including Sundays) leading up to Easter – the most important festival in the Christian calendar.  During Lent we are asking if you, your school, your workplace, or your church could collect 40 items for the Foodbank and bring them to us for people who will need help over the Easter period and beyond.

Lent runs from Wednesday 14th February to Saturday 30th March 2024.
