Bumper week of food drives for Stratford-upon-Avon Foodbank

11th July 2023

Next week, Stratford-upon-Avon Foodbank is having an exceptional week of local support, with three food drive events in the town:

  • Morrisons, Alcester Road is inviting their customers to show support for the foodbank with an all-day in-store food collection on Tuesday 18 July
  • Tesco, Birmingham Road is inviting their customers to show support for the foodbank with an all-day in-store food collection on Wednesday 19 July
  • Stratford Girls’ Grammar School, Shottery is running a house competition and asking their pupils to bring a food item to school on Thursday 20 July.

In the last year, food banks in the Trussell Trust network distributed nearly 3 million emergency food parcels across the UK, with 4332 food parcels being distributed in the Stratford-upon-Avon area in the year ending March 2023.

If you can support us at one of these events or by dropping an item into one of our collection baskets in the local supermarkets in Stratford town, we would really appreciate this.
