The Trussell foodbank at Ibrox Parish Church is back in full swing but with the ever-worsening ‘cost of living crisis’ we have understandably seen a significant downturn in donations from our collection points in supermarkets. Our stocks are severely depleted and sadly, with inflation predicted to continue to rise, this is only likely to get worse.
The deeds of the Trussell Trust mean that we can only buy food and we aren’t allowed to buy non-food items. We rely on donations and your continued generosity, at this time and throughout the year, is hugely appreciated.
Such donations might include:
- tinned fish
- tinned fruit
- tinned vegetables and pulses
- spaghetti
- sugar
- semi-skimmed UHT milk
- breakfast cereals
- biscuits
- diluting juice
- tea
- coffee
- jam
- pasta sauces
- super-noodles (kettle-friendly!)
- cuppa-soups (kettle-friendly!)
- tinned rice pudding
- tinned custard
- soap
- shampoo
- toothpaste
- toothbrushes
- razors
