One Vision Housing (OVH), part of The Sovini Group, is helping to tackle food poverty this Christmas by donating over £5,000 worth of food and supplies to local food banks.

Organised in partnership with His Church, OVH has recently donated pallets of food and essential supplies to three local organisations including Veterans HQ, Seaforth Family Wellbeing Centre and the South Sefton Food Bank.

Valued at over £5,000, the much needed food and supplies will help support families who are experiencing food crisis this Christmas.

The number of people turning to food banks is growing with the Trussell Trust, who support the South Sefton Food Bank, reporting a 19% increase this year in the demand for food parcels compared to last year.

A variety of goods such as cereal, soup, nappies and other basic necessities were included in OVH’s donation along with a few festive treats for Christmas.

Bob Blanchard of Veterans HQ said:

“We would like to thank One Vision Housing for their generous donation. With the number of families requiring assistance increasing constantly it’s vital we receive donations like this to help keep us going and families fed during Christmas.”

Ian Mitchell, Managing Director of One Vision Housing, said:

“We understand the effect food poverty can have on society and as part of our ongoing commitment to creating thriving, inclusive communities One Vision Housing have donated pallets full of food and supplies to help local families over the Christmas period.”
