CUOSC, in conjunction with Carlisle United, are holding a foodbank appeal before the home game against Salford on Saturday 24 August.
The collection gives United fans the chance to make a difference and previous collections, on behalf of Carlisle Foodbank, have always been well supported. We hope this one will receive a similar response.
The aim of Carlisle Foodbank is to provide three days of emergency food for people in the area who are in crisis.
Every donation of tinned or long-life food is valuable, but the Foodbank is always in need of UHT or powdered milk. Also toiletries, nappies, baby wipes and household cleaning products would be appreciated.
The collection point will be the CUOSC supporters’ surgery in the Study Centre, next to the club shop, between 1.30 and 2.45pm om the day of the game.
CUOSC are trying to develop the bond between the club and community and believe appeals like this help.
Remember every donation counts, no matter how big or small.
A list of items welcomed includes: Milk (UHT or powdered), Sugar (500g), Long Life Fruit Juice (carton), Packet Soup, Pasta Sauces (tin, jar or packet), Sponge Pudding (tinned), Custard (tinned or packet instant),Tomatoes, (tinned), Cereals, Rice Pudding (tinned), Small Box Tea Bags/Small Instant Coffee, Instant Mashed Potato, Rice, Tinned Meat/Fish, Tinned Fruit and Vegetables, Tinned Spaghetti, Tinned Ravioli, Jam/Marmalade, Biscuits or Snack Bars, Pot Noodles, Toiletries such as toilet roll, deodorant, shampoo, soap, nappies, baby wipes and household cleaning products.
