Christmas & Winter Stocking Campaign 2023
This Christmas and New Year your local food bank will be giving out emergency supplies to more people than ever before. At a time of the year when people should be excited about opening presents, there will be many families who have very little to look forward to. That is why Agents Giving are urging estate and letting agents, and property industry suppliers, to support our Christmas Stocking Campaign again for this year.
This Winter Agents Giving are running a Christmas Food Bank Appeal continuing the support of local Trussell Trust and other local food banks with their Christmas Stocking Campaign.
Help spread some Christmas and New Year cheer by filling a stocking or bag full of goodies to donate to your local food bank, meaning in addition to the basic food parcel contents those in need will receive the extras that everyone loves at and deserves this Christmas. Some chocolates and sweet treats are a real luxury if people are trying to manage financially.
During what is likely to be the most challenging winter our food bank network has ever faced, please help make sure The Trussell Trust can be there for everyone who needs us.
The soaring cost of living means more and more people are being forced to use food banks. The kindness of your donations really help to make a difference to those receiving these treats.
Recent figures by the Trussell Trust reveal that almost 3 million (2,986,203) emergency food parcels were provided to people facing hardship between April 2022 and March 2023, with more than a million of these parcels provided for children.

More than 14 million people in the UK live below the poverty line. We understand that every person’s struggle with poverty is different and that it takes more than food to end hunger. At this time of the year we urge you to help us to extend the spirit of Christmas to local families in need.
Thank you!
