Local Assembly Member Paul Davies visited the Tesco store in Haverfordwest to show his support for the 'FareShare' national food collection campaign. FareShare is a national UK charity supporting communities to relieve food poverty. This is the second food collection event that FareShare has run with Tesco and Trussell Trust. In December 2012, Tesco customers donated enough food for 2 million meals to help feed people in need. The campaign is also being run in conjunction with Sodexo.
Mr Davies said, "I was delighted to support FareShare's campaign and donate some items to their cause. FareShare is now redistributing food to more people than ever before, benefiting around 43,000 people every day through 910 charities based across the country. I'm sure the people of Pembrokeshire were generous in their donations and I hope that FareShare can build off their fantastic effort last year and help feed even more people this time around."
