We have donated the first of our food collections to Ryedale Foodbank in Malton.  The first donations were received during our Harvest Festival service in October.  There is now a permanent Foodbank box in St Helens Church, and donations are taken into the Foodbank each week.  If you would like to contribute, please leave your donation in the designated box inside the Church. The Foodbank box is emptied daily.  St Helens church is open every day 9.00 am - 4.00  pm.  

Ryedale Community Foodbank needs:    tinned meat,  tea,  tinned fish, cereals,  UHT milk,  porridge, UHT juice, hot chocolate  squash, biscuits, pasta, chocolate,  rice pudding, sweets, tinned custard,  coffee, toiletries,  cleaning products,  detergents.  

To date, Ryedale Community Foodbank has provided food for 964 people 639 adults and 325 children, across Ryedale.  As winter approaches, it is expected that demand for Foodbank services will increase.   Please help.
