The food bank said it was pleased to have recently received a new can for the service. Project manager at the foodbank, Liz Starling said the new vehicle was made possible by commercial vehicle company Adams Morey. “Devizes and District Foodbank are pleased to have recently taken delivery of a new van for the foodbank,” she said. “This has all been made possible with support from Adams Morey Ltd who gave us a really good deal; Devizes and Marlborough Area Boards who gave us grant money towards the cost.” APT Group services also raised £716 towards the cost of the van by walking 10,000 steps in February, and Kennet Sign & Display donated the magnetic signs for the vehicle.

When she was five years old, her family moved to the main street of Westmeath where she grew up and next door to the home where she lives today with her daughter Lynn Dupuis.
