A message from Foodbank:
"Please could you pass on our grateful thanks to all individuals who support us throughout the year. It is good to have supermarket collections and donations from harvests but the regular weekly donations are what gives us the stock to fill the Centres all year round. Without that we would be plagued by shortages and anxious moments!!"

A thank you from Freedom from Torture
I received this letter on 29th December 2017 thanking you all for your generosity in raising funds for Freedom from Torture over the autumn and winter.

Dear Donya,
On behalf of everyone at Freedom from Torture, I am writing
to thank you very much for your recent kind donation of £209.40 in total from
the Christmas card sales, donation and sales of your preloved bags. It is brilliant
to receive your various donations, and we are incredibly grateful for your
continued support.
It is only through donations like yours, that we can give torture
survivors the support and care they desperately need. Gifts like yours mean
they can begin to heal. Your support will enable survivors to spend time with
our doctors and therapists, and take part in creative groups like gardening,
art or bread making.
One survivor you have helped is Faryad, who takes part in
our creative writing group Write to Life. Faryad said: “The group has helped me
to begin writing again, helped me to begin recovering myself. The group members
have become my friends and my family, and I have a place where I can relax, be
myself, and share my worries. To find such warmth and care in a place so far
from home, in a culture so different from my own, has saved my life. ”
Thank you `for working so hard to ensure Faryad continues to
increase his confidence, taking further steps to recover from the torture he
endured. I hope you can pass on our warmest thoughts to everyone involved in
your wonderful fundraising activities.
With kindest regards and very best wishes to you for 2018,
Mandy Taylor
