When @StaceySolomon visited @EppingForestFB! π
Stacey popped by to show her support for Epping Forest Foodbank - and to encourage you all to donate to your local food bank!
If you can, please fix up a few extra items to donate next time you're at the shops. π₯« #StaceySolomon

Last week we volunteered at @EppingForestFB to support their Food in School Holiday (FISH) project.
We created food boxes which will be delivered to local families referred to the foodbank through schools and educational settings, ensuring they receive the support they need.
We loved having you! Thanks for all your help and hope to see you again soon
We're incredibly proud of our team's efforts in supporting the @EppingForestFB and their Food in School Holiday (FISH) project once again.
200 food boxes were packed which will be delivered directly to local families in need, referred by schools and educational settings.

Myth: EFFB judges you based on your situation
Fact: We ask our clients to be referred so we can ensure they are getting the right support to resolve their crisis.

Myth: EFFB only provides food.
Fact: Alongside emergency food we provide toiletries, sanitary products, cleaning products, pet food and baby basics.

Myth: Foodbanks cause dependency
Fact: EFFB works with a range of agencies to help people solve their crisis long term, rather than just giving them food

Myth: EFFB is only used by people who donβt know how to budget
Fact: The majority of our clients know how to budget, but simply do not have enough to budget with
