Barclays Bank in Henfield, is the latest business to be supporting our food bank, and over the Christmas period, have set up a donation point in their High Street store.
How a bank in Henfield came to support a charity in Brighton, is due to our wonderful long term supporter, Henfield Free Evangelical Church. The church was contacted by Barclays, who were looking for the best place to donate their Christmas food collection to and so having a food bin themselves, they readily suggested The Brighton Food BankWe are very excited about Barclays Christmas collection, as Store Manager, James Halligan has described the kindness and generosity, of Henfield’s community and doubts the food bin we delivered will be big enough. “Residents who aren’t even Barclays customer’s, will pop by, just to drop of food donations”
If you work for an organisation that would benefit from a Brighton Food Bank bin, please email comms@bhcm.org.uk.
