Today we would like to say a HUGE thank you to Swadlincote Brownies for inviting us to deliver a Food Bank Champions session 😁.

These sessions are designed to teach children about the role of food banks and aim to reduce stigma through a range of fun and interactive activities.

We would like to especially thank the Brownies and their families for kindly donating much-needed supplies to the food bank.

If your school or group is interested in our Food Bank Champions sessions, we offer these for children aged 4-11 in South Derbyshire. We have limited spaces available for in-person workshops, but we also offer a free PDF guide that includes all the information required to run a session as an alternative.

People can contact us at [email protected] for more details β™₯
