Robins Trust Christmas 2024 Charity Food Collection
The Robins Trust will be once-again co-ordinating a charity food collection in the run up to Christmas.
This year we would like to support a charity very close to home. The Cornerstone Centre in Whaddon Road is a local community-based charity who offer a wide range of services and support to the local community and is largely run by a host of volunteers.
As well as friendship and support, the centre offers counselling services, a range of activities, growth and development support for children and families. They have a charity shop and offer lunches in a sociable and friendly environment. In addition, they organise a weekly food pantry which is similar to a food bank, where those in need can supplement their weekly groceries for a small donation. The food pantry relies on donations of food, toiletries, baby foods and nappies to operate.
This year’s Robins Trust Christmas food collection will support the Cornerstone food pantry.
We will be operating a special collection point before the home game against Morecambe on Saturday, December 14th, by the ticket office in the main car park.
Alternatively, donations can be dropped into the CTFC ticket office during their opening hours between Monday 9th December and Friday 13th December.
Our donations help Cornerstone to provide friendship and support to local people of all ages and families, in a welcoming and non- judgemental space.
Please visit the Cornerstone website to see the amazing work they do. http://www.cornerstonecentre.org.uk/
If you feel able to donate just one small item, it can make a huge difference to someone else in our community.
The Cornerstone Community Centre specifically request the following:
- Breakfast cereal
- Coffee (small 100g jars)
- UHT milk
- Baked beans
- Pasta sauce / cooking sauce
- Custard
- Biscuits
- Squash/fruit juice
- Spaghetti
- Tinned mixed vegetables.
- Chocolates and mince pies
- Christmas treats would be wonderful too!
All items donated will be gratefully received.
Many thanks for helping to support the local community, from The Robins Trust.
