A GROUP of school pupils have donated over 100 recipe bags to a Dorset food bank.
Pupils from Bryanston School collected vital ingredients to create more than 100 recipe bags for Blandford Food Bank.
Donations were also collected for the foodbank from a harvest festival held at St Martin’s Church and led by school Chaplain, Reverend Davis.
Bryanston’s head of charities and community engagement, Doc Fearnley, emphasised the school community’s commitment to helping others saying, “Humanity and a sense of community is at the heart of what we do at Bryanston. Our pupils are aware of the struggles faced by many people in our local area and understand the importance of coming together to offer support and help in any way they can.
“This week also saw generous donations of children’s coats and pyjamas by prep school families to the clothes bank at The Centre in Ferndown, which is linked to Wimborne Food Bank.
“These donations are part of Bryanston’s ongoing commitment to support its local community and local charities and promoting a compassionate and socially responsible environment for its pupils.”
