Joeys community care fund

Joey is 7. I work for the London Ambulance service and off of his own back started a fund for NHS staff within the street. This raised cash to drop off snacks and goodies to give to the A&E staff at Kingston and West Middlesex hospitals.

It was so successful Joey wants to up his game and raise money for those who would otherwise be unable to support themselves over the next few months during this period of isolation.

After explaining how a Food Bank supports communities and how they work, he’s decided that he would like to raise money for our local food bank who may be suffering during in these unprecedented times of concern.

We’ve chosen our local food bank to raise money to purchase items they are low on and drop off.
