Transcript
00:00 Hello, I'm Claire Fuller and I'm the manager at Burgess Hill Pantry and here we are standing
00:04 outside our Christmas window. This year we're doing a reverse Advent calendar. We're asking
00:11 people who want to make a difference this Christmas to collect some lovely food items
00:16 every day of December and bring them into us in the pantry to help those who are struggling
00:21 to put food on the table.
00:24 We always struggle to get donations after Christmas, it's known as the hungry gap.
00:30 We are looking to fill our shelves with the items that are donated over the Christmas
00:35 period to keep us going through January, February and March. So help us at the pantry please.
