We have now confirmed our venue for next week's gathering - we will be meeting in the new function space at the back of the Bohemia (762-764 High Road, North Finchley). Come to the back of the pub and down the stairs to find us...
As previously trailed, Grace from the Trussell Trust will be sharing about the emergence of the Foodbank Network, and also about how to get involved with the newly established Chipping Barnet Foodbank from Karen and Teresa. Bring along a non-perishable food item to donate to get in!
We'll also be chatting about taking the Live Below the Line Challenge. Every year this gets more media coverage, so its a great opportunity to talk to others about the realities of poverty and perhaps change a few peoples' habits for the better. But don't take my word for it, here's Wallander / Avenger's star, Tom Hiddleston talking about why he's taking part in LBTL on This Morning. Nice.
With the rise of Foodbanks and the recent attention on welfare changes, we think that this will be a popular session, so do think about inviting someone along - we're always keen to welcome new members. See you at the Bohemia next Wednesday (17th April) from 7:30pm.
Don't forget to bring a friend and a tin of beans to donate!
