Foodbank Collection TODAY (1:30-2:40)

Post by jdrobbo » Fri Oct 14, 2022 12:17 pm

Hi everyone,

If you are able to, please, please, please consider bringing an item (or more) to the ClaretsForFoodbanks collection effort tomorrow, before our game against Swansea.

Items don’t have to be big and bulky…a tube of toothpaste in a coat pocket won’t be a bind to carry around a pub pre-match.

Of course, tins, dry foods, toiletries are all welcome.

Anything you can give, would be much appreciated.

Thank you so much!

John
WYClarets and BFCSG

Allowing cash donations may encourage more people to get involved.

Thanks Leisure. Would be nice if someone at the club could have this tweeted every home game (or every game for that matter) just as a point of reference for folk who want to donate.

Fully agree with you but the support which we receive from the Club leaves a lot to be desired!

I've messaged them asking if they would consider promoting it via their social media platforms every match day. See what happens.

Bottom of Ormerod Yard, behind the Cricket Club, outside the away turnstiles and on the corner of the Club shop. You can also leaves donations in the fanzone, especially if the bins have gone when you get there.
