On Friday 28th November 2014 staff at Awdry Bailey & Douglas   held a “dress down” day to raise food for local charity Devizes Foodbank.

Food collected from the firms Chippenham, Marlborough, Devizes and Royal Wootton Bassett offices included; tinned fruit, UHT milk, biscuits, tea, coffee, tinned meat, sugar and much more! 

With less than a month to go until Christmas some staff even wore their festive jumpers for this important and worthy cause.  Over 100kg of food was donated!
Over 100kg of food was donated! It’s the taking part that counts!
The Devizes Foodbank is part of a network run by The Trussell Trust who manage community projects in partnership with local churches and organisations helping to support those in need by bringing foodbanks to communities across the UK. There are now over 380 foodbanks in the network.
