Gatehouse Foodbank, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk

“While members of the public have been incredibly generous with food donations over the lockdown period, it has been a huge challenge to ensure that those who need our services continue to receive them at the most challenging of times. We are very grateful for the support we continue to receive from the East of England Co-op in helping us reach the most vulnerable in our communities – a number that is continuing to rise.”
