200 likes! We are so grateful for your support!

Our list is filling up with names but we still have spare packages!

To reiterate, Kindness in a Can packages are for people who are elderly, in need of support through the Covid-19 crisis, short of the funds needed to buy enough food, can’t get to the shops to get supplies, worried about how to provide for families during an uncertain time and also nhs workers who might not have been able to get to the shops.

Please done be embarrassed to nominate yourself for a package. We WANT to help and there are times in everyone’s lives when a little box of kindness goes a long way.

Donate for Dan is a community initiative aimed at supporting our own in times of need.

People in our villages have given incredibly generously because they want to support people who really need it, please accept it.

We are overwelmed.

Thanks to your generosity, topped up by that of our local businesses, we are confident that we will have 50 packages ready for delivery this weekend.

Packages will include some fresh vegetables and sausages supplied by a local farmer and butcher - pics later - tinned and non spoilable goods and loo roll!!! Amongst other bits.

Now we need some names of people that need it.

Please can you message the page with names and addresses of people that you think would benefit from a little help. It would also be helpful if you could tell us if the person has a pet that needs feeding too!

All nominations are confidential and unless you ask us to, we won’t tell the recipients who has nominated them. This is about helping people only.

Be really proud of our community

❤️
