Coventry
Food
Bank
-
In
these
most
difficult
times,
food
banks
are
running
short
of
supplies.
As
you
know,
Woodside
has
supported
the
Coventry
food
bank
for
many
years,
but
direct
donations
of
food
are
not
possible
at
the
moment
and
monetary
donations
are
preferable.
If
you
would
like
to
donate to the food bank, you can link to the website

long

has
been
received
from
Julie
R.

remains
