Generous grant received

We were very glad recently to receive a significant grant from Cubitt and West via the Sussex Community Foundation.
The grant was awarded to enable us to meet the increase in demand for our services which have continued to grow since lock down. To put the growth into context, this week at just one of our two centres we gave out twenty-one bags of food. Pre-lock down, six would have been normal and we only operated from one centre. The food value of each bag is around £15.00. Depending on funds we can often add a £10.00 voucher for fresh meat from a local butcher who works in partnership with us.
