Story
Food for All www.foodforall.org.uk targets the homeless, single parents, the elderly, the unemployed and people suffering from mental and physical illness (effectively providing a basic life line to the increasingly marginalised). It is staffed by a team of volunteers and receives regular donations of dairy, vegetables, fruit and rice from a number of wholesale food providers. Any cash donation or sponsorship therefore goes a very long way as more of the money can be used for the funding of unavoidable costs, such as premises, utilities and petrol for the delivery vans, thereby enabling a lot to be achieved for very little money.
I have a lot to weight to spare, so losing 5 stone is not a ridiculous amount, but a worthy challenge none the less. I have started and have already lost 1 stone (so only 4 stone to go!!!). Deadline: 31 Dec 2013.
