Festive support for Foodbank
Welfare officer Mary Fitzmaurice said: “No one should be hungry at Christmas. People often get caught up in planning dinner and doing the present shopping, and forget what really matters - each other.”
The Foodbank has seen a 46 per cent increase in demand for its services within the last year, with 800 people receiving food parcels in September alone.

Hide AdProject co-ordinator Salma Khan said: “For many of the people we help, Christmas is one of the hardest times of
the year. Christmas is about giving, not receiving, so we ask people in Luton to donate food for those in need.”
