Book Appeal

6th February 2017

Do you have any paperback or hardback books that you no longer need?  If so, would you like to donate them to Helston Lions and Helston & the Lizard foodbank.

The Helston Lions sell them on a book stall in Porthleven and the proceeds come to the Helston & Lizard Foodbank.  The Lions contact the foodbank on a monthly basis to get a ‘shopping list’ of items we are currently short of, with the book sale proceeds they buy the items we need in that month.

This system works extremely well as, although our community is more than generous, we sometimes run short of particular items, such as:

Tinned potatoes

Dried potatoes

Dried milk powder

Tinned rice pudding

Sponge puddings

Tinned or cartons of custard

 

To continue helping the foodbank in this amazing way, we need a constant supply of books.  If you are about to have a ‘spring clean’, please remember the Lions and the foodbank.  We can arrange for collection or if you would ring the foodbank office on 01326 564194 for delivery information.

THANK YOU
