Home from Hospital Bags; Emergency Assistance Bags; Bobby Van Bags
The TUUT Charitable Trust were pleased to support the work of the Swindon Food Collective in October with a donation of £5,000.
This donation was recommended to us by the Nationwide Group Staff Union in order to help improve their infrastructure development ensuring continuation of their operation and services.
Swindon Food Collective is the sole food bank provider in the Swindon and district area, with a population of around 250,000.
Along with 3 days of supplies to those referred to the foodbank the charity is involved in a number of initiatives such as “Home from Hospital Bags”, providing 48 hours of food to discharged patients, “Emergency Assistance Bags “ to support the homeless in temporary shelters and “Bobby Van Bags” for the police to distribute to victims of crimes such as burglaries.
