Great Marsden is a primary school in Nelson, Lancashire. Our school is in an area of high deprivation and we have a higher than average number of children on free school meals. Through the pandemic we supported families with basic food parcels. This has had to continue and we now have our own foodbank. We seek to educate our children to be responsible citizens of the future and support their families, and the wider community, to thrive and flourish. Great Marsden is a one form entry primary school in Nelson, in the east of Lancashire. Our school serves an area of high deprivation and we have higher than the national average of children on free school meals. During the pandemic, we were faced with families in extreme difficulty. Through a personal donation and our MAT we supported them in providing food parcels. Once the pandemic ended, sadly the levels of food poverty did not decrease, in fact we have seen a growth in those seeking help. We started signposting to the local food back but some of our families found this very difficult. We knew them, had a trusting relationship with them, coming to us was like coming to family. There is no charge for the service we provide. Hence we started our own foodbank, initially from the donations of staff and our families. For the past 12-18 months our Friends of St John's (school fundraising - which is ironic really!) have been buying fresh produce for the food bank each week to go alongside tins and packets. We call it 'Take What You Need and Give When You Can' and our families do genuinely try to do this. However, the ability to give back is becoming less and less. 12 months ago I applied for a grant to provide us with a sturdy outdoor shed and shelving, as our school entrance area was beginning to look like a shop. We had also noticed that some mums, and particularly dads, would only come in to collect something if no one was around. We knew we had to make it a safe, anonymous space. I can send you photos of the food 'shed'. To that end I write to you in the hope that you might be able to support us in some way. If you would like any other information, or a visit to our amazing school, please do not hesitate to contact me. We partner exclusively with Neighbourly.
