Easter Joy Emergency: 370 Eggs Needed!

18th March 2025

Colourful Easter eggs of various sizes arranged on a white surface. The eggs range from large decorated chocolate eggs to small foil-wrapped chocolate eggs in vibrant shades of gold, purple, pink, green, and orange. The eggs feature intricate patterns, spots, and metallic finishes, creating a festive and eye-catching display.

370 local children face missing an Easter treat this year. With just 30 eggs donated, we need your help to fill the gap by Monday 31st March.

We’re in a race against time to bring Easter joy to children whose families use our food bank. That’s 370 children who might miss out on an Easter tradition if we don’t reach our target of 400 eggs – meaning we need 28 eggs donated every day until the deadline!

For families choosing between heating and eating, an Easter egg becomes an impossible luxury. Your simple chocolate egg donation could be the brightest moment in a child’s week this Easter. Please remember all eggs must be unopened, commercially packaged and dropped off before 5pm on Monday 31st March.
