Food bank collection in Cheadle, Staffordshire tomorrow


A team from the Office of Nikki Sinclaire MEP will be present in Cheadle's ASDA store on Wednesday to collect donations for local food banks.

 

The MEP has been raising debt awareness and organising collections for food banks for a number of months, and the next stop on her food collection tour will be the Staffordshire store.

Nikki Sinclaire MEP said, "Research last month shows that 500,000 people across the UK last year used a food bank to eat.

 

Food banks are doing vital work in the West Midlands to feed families at a time when they may need a bit extra support. I would encourage anybody at the ASDA Cheadle store on Wednesday to even donate just one item. I know the difference it makes to peoples lives".

 

The We Demand a Referendum Now MEP added,

 

"Its amazing that we now pay £53 million a day to the European Union, while people here in our country are relying on food banks to feed their families ".
