Helping keep the cupboard full...
Published on May 1, 2020 by Ursula Mann

Well, another week or so and we're still able to help keep people off the streets of Tavistock with full cupboards stocked with the help of local volunteers. Today's post is really just to celebrate three things. 1. We've now processed £1000 worth of transactions through the collective which has allowed volunteers and requestors to remain safely social distanced. 2. We have continued to help deliver lots of reimbursed shops and can now begin to see that groceries are still taking up more of our time than anything else. People are much happier when they get to select the foods they actually eat. 3. We continue to donate shopping trips and top-ups to individuals suffering difficult changes in financial circumstance due to the lockdown. Thank you to those who have donated money to help us offer this much needed service.

We'll keep up the good work as long as we're needed.

Warmly,

Ursula
