Interesting idea from the Trussell Trust: Reverse Advent Calendar Campaign


Recommended Posts

'Trussell Trust Reverse Advent Calendar Campaign


Christmas is undoubtedly a time of excess for many. However not everyone is in a position to indulge. For that reason, we?d like to suggest considering taking part in this campaign by the Trussell Trust if you can. It?s pretty simple, every time you open a door in your own advent calendar and take a treat for yourself, you also donate a much needed item of food to a box destined for a local food bank. To check what stock is most needed in your local area, visit https://www.trusselltrust.org/get-help/find-a-foodbank/ and click on the links to ?Give help?/?Donate food?. They ask that you try and get donations in as early as possible so that foodbanks have enough time to distribute before Christmas.'

    • I would like to recommend Aaron, who has just finished 5 days plastering work in my house. He is professional , polite, tidy, punctual and reliable. He did a fantastic job, a good price and a top quality finish. Highly recommended! Aaron Manser 07773 410661
    • Sadly, but not unreasonably, councils find it difficult to justify such expenditure on their current budgets. My family, which does like fireworks have been enjoying the displays by those still with disposable wealth by viewing them from Hilly Fields. Other hills (Dawson Heights) are available. For children who have autumn and winter birthdays, a firework display is some consolation for their birthday climate. My grandchildren, being summer babies, can enjoy garden parties and picnics. Without the need for explosions and dazzling display. 
    • Hey - I’ve got a spare adult ticket if you want it?
    • Not sure what you mean by "involved with firework enjoyment"? I'm all for others enjoying themselves, and I like fireworks, but if they were limited to public displays then people could still enjoy them? Having said that, I see that tickets for the London New Year fireworks start at £20 (Dawson's Heights it is,  then!) The fireworks in Brockwell Park used to be free. I don't know why those don't happen any more?
