Bryson Recycling are sponsoring Crest Cooperative’s foodbank at Llandudno Junction that offers vital support to people in the local community.
Crest’s foodbank currently helps more than 150 people a month but is expecting to see demand increase in the coming months due to the rise in fuel and food prices. Bryson are sponsoring the foodbank this year, and the money donated will be used to purchase essential food items and toiletries.
Bryson Recycling manage two Recycling Centres and provide a garden waste collection service in Conwy County Borough Council. In April this year they took over the management of an additional three Recycling Centres in Denbighshire County Council.
Gareth Walsh, General Manager at Bryson Recycling said: “We are delighted to work collaboratively with Crest to help tackle food poverty in our local area. As a social enterprise it is important to us to make a positive contribution to the communities where we work and live”.
Rod Williams, Managing Director at Crest said: “Food is accessible to everyone at our foodbank, as we know how hard it is to put food on the table with the rising costs of living. Crest is committed to providing people in our community with a hassle-free approach to accessing essential food and sanitary products, and we thank Bryson for their support”.
Crest’s foodbank is located at their Llandudno Junction Store on Ferry Farm Road and is open every Tuesday and Thursday from 11am – 12pm. Anybody can access food from the pantry, it is not means tested and is open to all.
If you would like to donate items to the Foodbank you can do this at Bryson’s Recycling Centre in Mochdre. Items accepted include cereal, tinned goods, tea, coffee and biscuits. Please ensure all items donated are in date.
