Foodbank

Can you organise a food collection in your workplace in time for Christmas for a local food bank?
All you need to do is get a box set up for people to just pop the food into and let your workmates know. Then take it to a local food bank by 18TH DEC.

Alternatively Sheffield on a Plate are are organising a food collection. All you need to do is drop it off from 12pm Monday 2nd Dec to 12pm Friday 20th, bring your items into the Students Union Plaza (the foyer as you walk through the main entrance) and you'll see a Christmas tree with crates underneath. Put your stuff there, and they'll sort the rest!

Here's a shopping list or you might already have some of this stuff in your pantry...
Please bring items such as:
> Tinned meals, e.g. stew, pies, curry
> Tinned Meat and fish
> Tinned vegetables
> Tinned soup, cup-a-soup
> Dried pasta, rice
> Breakfast Cereals
> Non-perishable desserts , e.g. tinned custard, angel delight, rice pudding, tinned sponge puddings.
> Tea and coffee
> Packets of dried stuffing
> UHT milk
> Jar or packet sauces
