Lower Hutt Community Foodbank back at Dudley Street

Erin from Lower Hutt Foodbank

The Lower Hutt Foodbank has been back in its usual premises in Dudley Street for a month now. The lock-down forced many challenges to its operations but all is back to normal and the Foodbank continues to supply food parcels to Lower Hutt residents in need of emergency help. The photo shows food parcels in preparation.The Foodbank exists through the generosity of people, churches and businesses who provide food and donate money. Food donations can be left at the supermarket Foodbank bins or dropped off at Dudley Street during opening hours. Key food items always needed include snack food for school lunches, tinned vegetables and fruit, peanut butter and sugar. Many lovely people donate through the ‘Give a Little’ page at givealittle.co.nz... which enables the Foodbank to keep supplies topped up.
Opening hours are 9 – 11.30 am weekdays except closed on Thursdays. People needing help must bring ID such as a community services card or driver’s licence. Appointments are not required.

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
