BPI volunteering days 2022

The BPI Team would like to thank all of the UoB volunteers who joined us at the Northwest Bristol Food Bank and Social Justice Hub in December. Over three days the teams helped to pack and distribute Christmas hampers, provide hot drinks and warm smiles to foodbank customers, and sort through a mountain of donations in the foodbank’s warehouse. You can find out more about our experiences, how the foodbanks operate, and how you can contribute in our blog post.
