The Well Foodbank update 

Thank you so much everyone who is contributing to The Well foodbank, to the marvellous response we have had from the Bart’s family! Sadly our business units are looking the emptiest I have ever seen them, we totally understand the difficulties so many people/families are facing, but rest assured every little helps. We are at a point now that we are short of everything including toiletries, household cleaners, pet food and so the list continues. Please continue to give and encourage or share the word with friends and family - the recipients are so grateful. Your donations whatever amount are, they will be used, please place them in the trolley at the back of church 'It is in giving we receive' Kay Stokes http://thewellwolverhampton.co.uk

Wolverhampton City of Sanctuary Thank you all so much for your donations which are always appreciated and much needed.
