We ran our annual hamper collection at Somerfields in Brentwood.
We collected 2 trolley loads of foodstuffs, that were non perishable and
hence hopefully most useful to elderly people in our area. The distribution
of the hampers was again done by local social services. This meant
that the food was able to go to the people that needed it most.
