At our past two events we helped raise money to support our local Foodbanks. This year our donation will be going to help homeless people.
As you know, our Winters are getting colder and wetter, and in these difficult times more people find themselves in the unfortunate situation of not having a roof over their head. I hope that you will support us in this endeavour.
Money Raised:
November 2019 we raised £600 Cardiff Foodbank
November 2023 we raised £825 Newport Foodbank
