Conwy Food Share- Feeding local people in crisis

To everyone at St Joseph’s Church, Colwyn Bay

Conwy Food Share would like to give our most sincere thanks again to you all for your extremely kind donations of food and £20 cash given to us last week. We are very grateful for the substantial amount of food given as we realise that food is getting more expensive all the time.

This week your donations have helped us to send a large food parcel to a family with five children, including a young baby, who are in extreme financial difficulty. Our single parcels this week included an elderly gentleman who had been in hospital and a young girl who had her money stolen.

Conwy Food Share has now been operating for one year and we have given out a total of 360 parcels in that time.

Thank you again for your very kind continuous support. 

Kind regards

From all at Conwy Food Share

Thank you to all those who responded to the appeal for tins of meat and fruit. It was great to see so many tins of just what we need however, they all went out in parcels within three days. We have delivered four parcels to families in the last two days.

Please keep the donations coming in as the food is never on the shelves for more than a week. We are always short of tins of fruit, custard and rice pudding,  bottles of paste or peanut butter, bottles of squash and fruit juice, coffee, tins of cold meat, tins of main meals eg meatballs, chicken curry, chilli con carne. 

We are also very grateful to receive financial donations as we need to top up food supplies when we run short.  Your help is much appreciated

Conwy Food Share

We would like to encourage you to please continue donating food items for the Conwy Food Share. 

The Food Share continues to be very busy donating on average 10 parcels of food a week to needy people across Conwy. The recipients of the food come from all walks of life and all age groups. They are mainly single, but we do have families and single parents. As well as food we also need financial donations to buy perishables such as milk and bread.

Thank you for your continued support.
