Until not very long ago I donated food whenever I did my weekly shop.
Things have altered drastically in my life and, today, I visited a food bank for the first time.
I was made welcome from when I first entered - given a cold drink, a seat and someone to talk to. I am so very impressed by the kind words of understanding and encouragement. I left with household items - washing up liquid etc, and dried goods as well as fresh local vegetables.
I have always supported the food banks in my area and, now I have seen from the other side, I realise just how necessary they can be in someone's life.
