The Basics Bank is a ‘church led, community focused’ project that enables the community to ‘practically support individuals and families who are in financial crisis’. It provides dried or tinned food which is donated by individuals, schools, churches and local businesses to those in need within the Borough of Eastleigh. We have an ongoing collection for this in both St Mary’s and St Paul’s, and the Basics Bank is also glad of volunteers to help at their premises. Our parish rep. is Carolyn Jennings, who may be contacted on 023 8061 1056.
For more about the Basics Bank, how to contact them direct and their ‘shopping list’, please see www.eastleighbasicsbank.co.uk
