Support West End Foodbank
Foodbanks are going to massively hit in general over the next few weeks and months. Money is tighter for donations for a lot of people right now.
On top of this for the West End Foodbank in Newcastle it collects donations at football matches at the St James' Stadium, now the games are cancelled they are going to miss out on these donations too.
Demand is going to be up too, due to Covid 19 people are losing jobs, children who would normally benefit from free school meals and breakfast clubs will be at home, putting an extra strain on families already stretched thin.
I feel utterly powerless at the moment and just want to do whatever I can to help but I can't run marathons or play guitar for 24 hours or anything that usually garners fundraising but one thing I can do is witter on about beer and brewing, so that's what I'm going to do. If we reach the fund raising goal of £400 I will be publishing a 'Self Isolation Brewing Guide' on how to make homebrew wines with just whatever you happen to have in your kitchen when you go on lockdown. A little bit tongue in cheek, but also a practical guide to cheap ways to make your own homebrew. I'll be publishing this through www.craftbeernewcastle.co.uk
I really want to support this amazing charity who are going to be crucial in the coming weeks and months, please give whatever you can.
