I’ve just been asked how to make regular donations to the Sutton food bank.

Firstly, there isn’t any longer a ‘Sutton food bank’ as such, in the sense of a location in the village to go and receive food boxes. Food bank deliveries to Sutton residents’ homes are carried out discreetly by volunteers from outside the village.

There are however still distribution centres in nearby towns and villages https://ely.foodbank.org.uk/locations/ These are coordinated by the Ely food bank https://ely.foodbank.org.uk/

Donations for the food bank can be left at the Sutton One Stop and the Co-op.

You can make regular donations of money rather than food here https://ely.foodbank.org.uk/give-help/donate-money/ (Very useful for those of us who do our shopping online.)

And there are also opportunities for local businesses to partner with the food bank, as a number of firms have already done https://ely.foodbank.org.uk/give-help/partner-with-us/
