Crumlin WI highlights local food parcel support with guest speaker from Antrim Foodbank

At its November meeting, Crumlin WI welcomed Mr Robert Jones from the Antrim Foodbank as guest speaker.

Robert gave an informative talk on how the organisation provides essential three-day emergency food supplies to local individuals and families in crisis. He also brought along samples of the standard food parcels to show how nutritional needs are met.

In support of this vital local service, Crumlin WI members were delighted to present a cheque for £340 to the Antrim Foodbank, which was generously raised by the members.

The evening wrapped up with traditional WI celebrations. Gwen Mackey was congratulated as the November birthday girl, and the winner of the monthly competition was Elizabeth Mackey.

Members are now looking forward to their December meeting, which will take place at Langtry Lane Garden Centre.
