Tomorrow is Christmas Hamper packing day! Thanks to some generous donations we've got some fabulous hampers to give to our guests. But we're missing bags! In a last minute unorganised plea, are there any local businesses who could donate us some strong shopping bags?

Reasons to be cheerful for us this week are 123😊

1 We received a donation of delicious apples! Crunch crunch.

2 We were sent gorgeous brownies with lovely notes by #volunteers - yum.

Delighted to say our fridge fund reached its goal, & we have a lovely shiny new fridge for our #soupkitchen, which is really cool 😎 (sorry).

Big thanks to everyone who contributed to our fund. Our #volunteers are already using it to prepare tasty meals for our guests.

As nights draw in & temperatures drop we'd be hugely grateful for donations from anyone of hats, scarves or gloves. 🧣🧤 If you can knit (with emotion of your choice) we'd love to pass those on & spare items in good condition welcome with plain items in dark colours preferred 👏

Some covet sports cars, others Caribbean cruises, but here at St John's Kitchen, it's a great big silver beast of a fridge. There's less than £400 to reach our target and then we can serve up more fresh food to our guests! Donate at https://t.co/FLmENDzrga

The Soup Kitchen @sjebp harvest today: chard, assorted tomatoes, French beans, one sorry-looking paprika and a decent handful of summer savory. I'll dry the savory; everything else is for Tuesday's lovely @stjohnskitchen volunteers.

After two years of making do with donated domestic fridges, it's time to upgrade. We've entered new partnerships which means we have more fresh food to give out to guest. We need to raise £1200 for a new commercial fridge. Head to https://t.co/FLmENDzrga to donate!

We rely on a lot of waste food to keep St John's Kitchen running. During the pandemic, the Government provided grants to help charities redistribute food. This has now stopped, so please consider signing this petition to keep it going! https://t.co/BzrYRqYD6C

Tomatoes that are a bit wrinkly for White Brothers to sell, but perfect for a veggie pasta sauce for Sunday’s lunch! #ZeroFoodWaste #SoupKitchen #MoreThanJustFood

[St John's Soup Kitchen @stjohnskitchen]

Our guests are in for a TREAT tonight with these amazing summer fruit tarts made by one of our volunteer bakers. Drop us a message if you’re interested in joining the volunteer baker ranks!🫐🫐🫐
