The Newbury Weekly News Over 80s’ Parcel Fund 2020 Please help us raise £20,000 to buy the food from Sainsbury’s this year.

St Bartholomew’s School SIXTH FORM VIRTUAL OPEN EVENING

The Tea and Tobacco Fund this year beat all records “No 99” was one of the happiest households in the Newbury district on Christmas day.’ Newbury Weekly News 1908

If you had been receiving a Newbury Weekly News food parcel 100 years ago it would have contained either a tin of tea or tobacco. Times have certainly changed and 2020 has been very different too, but the Parcel Fund continues! This year we are doing the same thanks to so many people who are still willing to give up their time and help and will be distributing over 2000 parcels for which we will need over £20,000!
