Let's hear it for Winchcombe Music Festival and the Cotswold and Cirencester Male Voice Choirs. 💚🎶💚

Not only did they get a standing ovation at their gala concert at St Peter's Church on May 31, they also raised £181 for North Cotswold Foodbank. The concert featured top soprano Hannah Davey. 💚🎶💚

We're run almost entirely by volunteers and rely on donations. So thanks for the great music and for all your support. 💚🎶💚

Please help where you can. 💚

When you think of donating to your local food bank, pasta and beans might spring to mind.

Though these staples are always appreciated, food banks also need some more unexpected but essential items - take a look! 👀

If you're able to, please pick up a few of these for your local food bank the next time you're at the shops.

For the most up-to-date needs, check your food bank's website or download the BanktheFood app. 💚

Supporting your local food bank is most powerful when it’s purposeful.

The free BanktheFood app shows you exactly what your local food bank needs right now, meaning they get just what they need for emergency food parcels, helping reduce unnecessary storage and making stock management far more efficient.

It’s also important to always check use-by dates, as food banks can't distribute out-of-date items.

Remember, they often need non-food essentials as well as long-lasting cupboard staples and sometime foods that don’t rely on oven cooking.

Download the free BanktheFood app and it will ping your phone with a real-time list when you’re at a drop-off point, making it easy to donate exactly what’s needed.

And please spread the word! The more people who use BanktheFood, the more thoughtful and timely donations become. 💚
