Exciting developments at Flintshire Foodbank!!!
We have been chosen by Comic Relief to compete for the votes of Netmums website users for the next month.
The Sport Relief Grants chosen by Netmums initiative will share £200,000 between five charities and each charity will get a proportion of the money, the amount recieved being determined by how many votes the charity recieves.
Please vote for Flintshire Foodbank! We can do so much more to help needy families if we win a significant proportion of the cash. To vote you need to register on the Netmums site before midnight on 18th March - this hyperlink will take you straight there:
