Christmas food drop helps 100 needy families in Burnham and Highbridge
Thousands of pounds worth of food was distributed to needy families across the Burnham-On-Sea and Highbridge area on Christmas Eve thanks to local donations and a team of volunteer helpers.
Highbridge’s Morland Community Hub oversaw the Christmas Eve food drop after receiving donations of food and gifts from local supermarkets, residents and businesses.
Over 20 volunteers gathered on Thursday night to distribute the food to the grateful families using a fleet of cars and mobility scooters.
The Morland Community Hub’s Project Development Officer, Jane Macpherson, told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “We are hugely grateful for the many generous donations over the last few days which include Great Western Rail, Home Farm Holiday Park, M&S, Lidl, Aldi, Asda, plus the Argos Distribution Centre in Bridgwater in addition to many kind individuals.”
