Great effort for food donations

Food and basic household essentials worth more than £1,000 have been donated to a food bank charity by Shepshed office employees.

The collection was organised by contracting’s Sid Ragha and Tracy Ruddick as part of a Highways England (HE) supply chain initiative to support the Trussell Trust.

“Tracy also got four of our suppliers to contribute as well,” said Sid, a central region estimator at the Leicestershire site.

“We were amazed at how much was donated over the two months. It was a great collective effort and we heard the Trust were very pleased to receive the items.”
