Recipients of parcels from Wimborne Food Bank will be able to enjoy some festive foods this Christmas thanks to pupils from Queen Elizabeth’s School.
Staff and students donated goodies including savoury snacks, cakes, mince pies, boxes of chocolates and more, filling five large boxes.
The school, which is part of Initio Learning Trust, will give the gathered groceries to Wimborne food bank where they will be used in hampers for families in need this Christmas.
Local brewery Hall and Woodhouse also contributed by donating £250 worth of chocolates and sweets.
Thomas Neill, headteacher at Queen Elizabeth’s School, said: “We are very pleased to be able to play our part as a school in supporting those families who are struggling this Christmas.
