All donations gratefully received. Suggested donation £5>. All donations go to Leeds’ Foodbanks.

If you’re coming along to The Grove Inn in Leeds, please feel free to bring non-perishable foodstuffs, toiletries (soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorants etc.), sanitary products etc., which will be collected by volunteers on the day.
