Smith's Wood Primary Academy are always seeking to support the local community in as many ways as possible, following meetings with members of the community we understand that the local need to access the food bank in Smith’s Wood has increased.

In association with our community partners we have agreed to host a donation box at Smith’s Wood Primary Academy.  This is located in the main entrance to the school and is accessible to parents/carers and visitors to make a donation if they wish to do so.  Pupils in school will then support the transition of donated items to the food bank to allow supplies at the facility to be maintained during periods of high demand.

By supporting this initiative, we feel that not only are we assisting to remove the stigma about using the local food bank, but we are also helping children to understand the necessity to be part of a community that helps each other.

Should you wish to make a welcomed donation, the food box is available in the main entrance between 8:00am and 4:00pm daily.
