The Durham Food Bank, operating a branch at St. Clare’s Church, celebrated its 1st birthday last Sunday, bringing together all the volunteers and supporters of the scheme.
Co-ordinators Ernie and June Temple organised the event to report on progress and express thanks to everyone for their magnificent support.
Statistics show a steady increase in demand by families who do not have the cash to buy essential food. The Durham Food Bank Headquarters in Chester-le-Street collect the foodstuff and distribute to various church premises throughout the county.
