As our thoughts turn towards Christmas, it will soon be upon us and I am sure like all of us at Sanderson Young, you are looking forward to spending some quality family time.
If 2020 has taught us anything, it has taught us to appreciate what we do have, rather than the things we don’t and so, my thoughts turn to others less fortunate than myself and how I can make a difference for those this Christmas.
Therefore, I am writing to you to ask for your help.
I will be making a contribution towards donating food to the Alnwick, Amble and Shilbottle food banks to help those in need at Christmas, and I hope that you will too.
Here in our Alnwick office, we have set up Christmas donation boxes, of which we will be sending all of the food donations we receive, to the local food banks mentioned.
We welcome everyone with open arms, to donate as little or as much as you would like, with the closing date Thursday 17th December.
We have prepared a food donation advent calendar below to assist with the choice of items needed.
Best Wishes
