Tesco Metro food collection

Event Date: 
05/07/2013 - 9:00am to 06/07/2013 - 6:00pm
Venue: 
Tesco Metro, 223-226 Exeter High St

Urgent help needed!

We are having a food collection in Tesco Metro on Exeter High St for Fareshare/Trussell Trust.

I am looking for a couple of volunteers to help out on Friday 5 and Saturday 6 July between 9am-6pm.

We have tried a couple of local food banks but to no avail, it would require collecting food and giving out stickers.

We can provide plenty of tea and biscuits for anyone who can help us with this great cause and help the local community.

If you can help please contact Kieren on 07712 856417.
