This Manchester food bank is looking for volunteers to help make sure nobody goes hungry this Christmas
The days leading up to Christmas are always a busy flurry of wrapping presents, last-minute shopping, and preparation for the big day. But for one Manchester food bank, they are a crucial time to sort meals that will be a lifeline for hundreds.
The team will deliver the festive hampers to 300 struggling households this holiday season - that's 300 families who be able to enjoy a proper Christmas meal, who otherwise would have gone hungry on Christmas day. As well as food and drink, the hampers come with gifts for children and treats for adults, helping families in need to have a truly special Christmas. But they need your help.
The charity are purely delivery based, helping food banks become more accessible to those who need them. It's just one of the many reasons we've chosen to support them for our Christmas appeal - you can donate to the campaign here. They're looking for anyone who might be able to take on a delivery route on December 23 to help bring the festive hampers to Manchester's neediest doorsteps.
