HARVEST SERVICE, THIS SUNDAY, 6 SEPTEMBER

Your harvest donations will be extremely welcome, and we very much appreciate you asking what is needed. The list below are the items that we need the most. We consider meals that can be heated in a cost-effective way or used for a variety of meals in order to stretch a budget.

Tinned meat such as hotdogs, stewed beef, mince in gravy, corned beef or tinned ham.

Vegetables such as tinned carrots or garden peas.

Rice pouches, just plain rice is perfect.

Pasta sauce.

Custard

Rice pudding

Jam, either raspberry or strawberry.

Multipacks of cereal or traditional smaller boxes of cereal such as corn flakes or rice krispies.

Not essential, but packets of biscuits are always a nice treat if we have them to add to a food parcel.

Also, we are often asked for washing powder (gel, pods or whatever) and cleaning products, an anti bac spray or a multipurpose cleaner is ideal.
