By Alan Fraser and Serena Lola Due to the ongoing Covid-19 emergency, the Heston and Cranford community have come together to help feed the vulnerable in our community. This pop up foodbank delivery service is being led by Heston West Big Local and Cranford Community College. The initiative is being supported by our partners Berkeley Academy, Heston Royal British Legion, Heston Action Group, Chartwells and Seema Malhotra MP Fetham and Heston.
We have been able to secure the supply of food from Chartwells but we need money to buy the food. Each household is receiving a pack of food to the value of between £40 and £50. £50 will provide a basic food pack including items like rice, pasta, tinned tomatoes, tuna, corned beef, beans, uht milk, bread, cereal, tinned fruit, eggs and toilet roll, for a week. There are many things to worry about at this difficult time so let’s try and make food something that people do not need to worry about. Please support this initiative with your kind donations and help the most vulnerable in our community. Please click here to show your support and to donate. RECENT UPDATE: Tuesday 31st March : The first food deliveries rolled out to 42 household. Next week we want to increase this to 100 with your kind donation.

By Alan Fraser  **LAST UPDATED 18.03.2020** Following our Heston West Big Local Board meeting it was decided to suspend all activities with immediate effect. We took this measure to follow government advice on social distancing. Social distancing is an important tool in reducing the spread of Coronavirus and I would urge all members of the community to follow this measure. This means you should not attend any social gatherings including parties and family gatherings. Meeting with people should only be when essential and if you do have to please try and stay 2 metres apart. We need to change the way we live and by doing so we can help save the lives of the vulnerable members of our family and community. I am pleased to say that the Board has agreed a number of different ways we can be together in a safe way online. We also agreed a way we can help those in need within our community. We are just finalising the detail on all of this and will be back in touch soon to let you know how you can participate. Until further notice the board will meet via video conference every Tuesday. These are going to be the most challenging times of our lives but it is important to remember that you are not in this yourself, we can get through this together.
