Huge thank you to Mike Lakhani from St Mary's Premier Supermarket for the generous donation of #ribena and to our volunteer Hannah for putting it into family food parcels that are going out to schools next week.

We are happy to help!

Thanks again to Liz and Simon from @UKHarvest for a wonderful donation of 1,617 individual luxury Chocolate truffles which will be made into small gift parcels for our elderly friends in Central Southampton who are currently shielding.

Thank you Mike Sarson and team from @StreetPastors #Southampton for keeping our city safe and for supporting our vulnerable Street friends and for working with @difference_abc in providing emergency food provision for those in need.

Thank you Liz and Simon from @UKHarvest and driver Mike for the delivery of fresh produce. We were assisted by PCSO Kemp from @HantsPolice who helped make us veggie and fruit boxes for families in need

50 meals donated to us from The Big Difference charity! These will be going towards our Wednesday food bank🤩 Thankyou Big Difference, so generous and will massively help our families ! 🍽 @difference_abc

We got a call this morning from Chris from @SouthamptonAsda to collect some of the missing items for our food parcels. We only spoke to her on Friday & it once again shows how communities are coming together to help those in crisis. Thank you @asda from #thebigdifferenceabc

Thanks so much to James Lapage from @RotarySotonUK who are supplying us with fresh fruit every Monday for the next several weeks. This is being funded by Wessex Heart Beat. This fruit is supplementing the food parcels we give out every week to all the people in the current crisis

@Ayla_Iskender @SouthamptonCMAG @SCM_chirps Thank you

@SouthamptonCMAG @SCM_chirps @difference_abc Thanks for sharing. The next time I go food shopping, I’ll buy these and drop them off on one of those Sundays 💖

We are organizing another food drive to help @SCM_chirps and @difference_abc and Swaythling Baby bank. Can you help with donations? This Sunday stop by Shirley Parish Hall. Many, many thanks!

#thebigdifferenceabc would love to thank Liz Woodsell & Simon from @UKHarvest for their continued support since the beginning of Covid on delivering wonderful frozen meals. Thanks Hugo for the delivery of pies that will go out to all our links with schools across #Southampton

It's not unusual for new CAP clients to have empty kitchen cupboards when they first come to us for help. Food banks and emergency food aid are especially important right now. #FoodPoverty

We are in a national lockdown. Please help everyone by following the government's latest advice. Our staff are still available to support you. Get in touch by calling 023 80 224 224, emailing enquiries @nolimitshelp.org.uk or on webchat via our website: buff.ly/2N6falg

Debt can feel extremely dark. That's why CAP equips churches to run services in their communities that combat debt, unemployment, dependencies & lack of budgeting skills. Each year the Church helps more than 22,000 people move forward & step into a new day. #NewStart #AlwaysHope
