Huhtamaki Foodservice Delta have donated up to £2,500 worth of products to two local West Belfast foodbanks this Christmas. Huhtamaki staff collected the products at their site in Kennedy Way. The amount was raised through staff donations and contributions from Huhtamaki Foodservice Delta as well as from key suppliers like Woodsides Haulage.
The West Belfast Foodbank, based at Conway Mill, serves the area between Kennedy Way and the city centre, providing emergency food and support to local people in crisis, through referral agents. Vouchers are available from referral agencies like Springfield Charitable Association, Sure-Start Albert Street and Beechmount, and the Citizens Advice Springfield Rd and Shankill Rd.
