As a church, we support John Huntingdon's Charity by donating items for their food bank (Click here to find out about the charity). Our collection point is in the lobby area of our Ashen Green Entrance and can be accessed during office hours (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday: 8:30am till 1:30pm). If the door is locked during these times - please ring the doorbell. 

For ideas of what to donate, please take a look at the chart below and just put what you can into the box. Remember it's TINS, CARTONS, PACKETS, JARS of food that have a long life and can be stored at room temperature that are needed.
