In our first year the project distributed 246 boxes to families through the church and local Social Service teams. Spring 2019, the project had expanded to 2,266 boxes which were distributed across six boroughs in the south-east. This incredible result was due to the support from individuals donating through King’s Church London and at local supermarket collections, local schools, and businesses, as well as through large corporate food donations. The project has currently taken the form of ‘Big Red Bag’ with food provision available across the year. Social Action at King’s Church London (kingschurchlondon.org)
