Feeding of the 5000 in Stroud in July

The 5K Feast is about promoting awareness of the new foodbanks in Dursley, Stonehouse and Stroud. To this end, the Marah Trust and the Stroud District Foodbank are after some help to try and end food poverty in the District.

They plan 5000 people to take part in a series of meals in July organised by local community groups, businesses and individuals. Can you organise a group? It could be a meal, a coffee morning or just a few nibbles - colleagues, friends and/or neighbours to share and give a donation to the work of the Foodbank and Marah.

The Foodbank will be providing all the resources: invitations, party ideas, posters etc but they need all of us to share the idea with friends and colleagues - please register your support and get more information at strouddistrict.foodbank.org.uk/5kfeast - or call them on 07725 87423. Since they opened they have now fed over 450 people - visit and like them on facebook
