In the run-up to Christmas, here's an appeal from Anne Nicholls and the This Girl Can Period campaign.

 bags of love at xmas 2024 version 1

💝 Three years and counting - and our community's kindness still leaves me speechless!

A huge shoutout to Cooking Champions, an incredible charity that not only delivers weekly food parcels to families in need but also runs a vital food bank every Thursday.

💝 Having been a delivery driver for them over the years, I've met so many amazing people who rely on these parcels to feed their families. But here's the thing - while food is essential, toiletries are often overlooked yet desperately needed. That's why we started our annual toiletries collection drive!

Your donations, big or small, are transformed into care packages that bring smiles and dignity to so many faces. You wouldn't believe how much a simple bag of toiletries can mean to someone. The gratitude I see when delivering these packages is truly heartwarming.

❤️ If you can; please drop off at the Palmers Greenery Community Cafe in Broomfield Park N13. Drop off your donations and pop in for a cuppa on a walk around the park. To everyone who has contributed - THANK YOU! Your kindness makes a real difference in our community. 🙏

YES PLEASE

  • shower gel/soap
  • deodorant
  • period supplies
  • shampoo/conditioner
  • toothpaste and toothbrush

While we admire and support the Christmas campaigns that we see pop up in December, we also know that help is urgently needed all year round, each and every year. As some people pack away after the festive break, we are still here.

Our support is not limited to a food package, but it leaps beyond - we form connections, we listen and respond to everyone who steps through our doors. We open up a warm, safe, environment which aims to feel like a home away from home.

For us to continue to thrive and grow, and keep supporting as many people as possible, we are asking you to become a Friend of Cooking Champions. Even a donation of just £5-10 per month can make a HUGE impact on the lives of those who come through our doors.

Pop to our People's Fundraising page to donate, and we promise to keep you updated with how your support is making a difference. Thank you, we appreciate you! Team Cooking Champions
