[ClaretTony]

Bumping this - please drop a tin in the bin if you can

[claretburns]

Coming over to Burnley tomorrow, will nip to shop and buy some tins and drop them in.

[Tribesmen]

Some heavy duty lock on that bin . Would someone really steal it ?

[Longsidelenny1882]

[bfcjg]

I'll drop something in tomorrow. Never underestimate the gratitude of the recipiants of the food banks.

It’s not me personally but it’s part of Clarets for Foodbanks which is organised by Burnley FC Supporters Groups & Up the Clarets.

Just to add, anyone who passes and has forgotten their tins, or just didnt think theyd pass and wanted to contribute, theres a family run shop that sells tins and none perishables right across the road from the bin.

You can help 2 families at once, and you've still done your bit for the food bank

[ClaretTony]

Reminder: Bin there until 6 pm

[ClaretTony]

To those who have donated in the last two days a big thanks - bin was just about full.

It will make a difference.

[ClaretTony]

Just a heads up for anyone who can make a donation - the Clarets for Foodbanks bin is back outside Padiham Methodist Church (corner of Padiham Road and Brassey Street) today and tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Any food donations would be so gratefully received.

It's under surveillance by one of our members, and it is fastened up.

Good. I shall be along shortly with some branston beans (they knock Heinz into a cocked hat) and some soup.
Great initiative btw.

Brilliant, thanks very much, but the bin won't be out until 10.

[MACCA]

Excellent, might not make it up today due to the weather, but will pop a few tins in when I'm out with the dog at some point.

As mentioned above for anyone who passes and has forgot their tin, or wants to contribute, there's a shop directly across from the bin that sells various suitable items.

In addition to this bin and the other established collection points, there's also one at the junction of Pendle Way & Foxcroft, near both Wellfield and St. Mary Magdalene's Primary schools ....

Another great effort over the last two days with the Clarets for Foodbanks bin on Padiham Road. A massive thanks to all those who have been able to make a donation.

We popped by yesterday lunch time and to say the rain was torrential would be an understatement, and the bin was about half full.
The rain didn't look like it had put people off.
Hopefully it was full by collection point.


Do you know if this will be a weekly thing CT?

I don't to be fair. It all depends on the people who have been managing it.

I'll keep an eye out for the threads then.

We often run a bring a tin in, and take it down to the food bank next to TK Max once we get a basket full.
However we cant go down there at the moment, so will start collecting some tins ahain and pop them in the clarets for food bank bins.
They're only round the corner from us.

[MACCA]

Are there any plans for this to be put out again before Christmas?

It's not going to be possible to have one there I don't think this month. If anything changes I'll let everyone know.

No problem, we've another bag of food collected.
I'll take a few detours and see if the man has a bin outside his house again, and put it in there.

Bump

There is a bin out at the bottom.of Pendle Way today, so anyone in the ightenhill , Padiham Rd , Gannow or Whittlfield area can pop some bits in there if they're wanting to contribute before Christmas.

It does have the same sticker on as the clarets foodbank one usually on Padiham Rd, so it's going the same place

Yes, it’s one of our bins if it is the one near Foxcroft on Pendle Way.
