Volunteers at the Collective Sharehouse - which has handed out 1,000 packages of food and supplies since it opened in December A COMMUNITY group which set up a sharehouse where people can drop off or collect food and other essential items says it has been helping around 50 families a week. Volunteers opened The Collective Sharehouse in December 2020 in response to footballer Marcus Rashford s campaign against food poverty and the effects of the pandemic. The volunteers, linked to Scarcroft Primary School, accept donations had distribute food and items such as toiletries and nappies. People do not need to be referred to the site and no questions are asked - volunteers only record how many households visit during each session.
