December's 'shopping list', thank you for your ongoing support 💚

Opening hours over the Christmas: We will be closed from Monday 26 to Wednesday 28 December. We reopen Thursday 29 at St Andrew’s and at Grove Road Friday 30. We’re closed Monday 2 Jan and then open as usual from Tues 3 at Great Baddow, see [email protected]

More people than ever are facing extreme poverty, unable to afford the basics. There are lots of agencies that can issue a voucher for emergency food. Give Citizens Advice Chelmsford a call on 01245 205579. Or Chelmsford Child & Family Wellbeing Service 0300 2470014.

We don't have to live with hunger in Chelmsford. Together we can end the need for emergency food. If you want to see things change, click here to join the growing movement for a #HungerFreeFuture > trusselltrust.org/hunger-free-fu…

Want to help build a #HungerFreeFuture? We don’t think it’s right that anyone in Chelmsford needs a charity to put food on the table. If you agree, one of the most powerful ways you can get involved is by using your voice – find out more here > trusselltrust.org/hunger-free-fu…

As the year draws to a close, we want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported us this year. Whether you've given your time volunteering, used your voice to campaign for change or donated towards our work, you have helped bring hope to so many people. 💚
