The last few months demand for food parcels has been greater than food donated. Most people are experiencing hardship in the current climate, we are need of long life food items are still the main priority, currently we are continuously short of items such as tinned meat, tinned vegetables, tinned puddings, UHT milk, cereal, jam, cooking sauces, rice, and pasta.
