CASTLE Bromwich residents have helped feed more than 250 people since the start of the year.
St Mary & St Margaret's Church is a collection point for the Kingfisher Foodbank, which provides food to local people in need.
Tinned meat, tinned fish, fruit juice and toiletries are among the products that people are being encouraged to donate.
Bring items to the church on Wednesday or Sunday morning, or alternatively drop them in at the parish office on Monday, Wednesday or Friday.
Figures released last year by the Trussell Trust have shown that the number of people using foodbanks is still at record levels.Overall 1,109,309 emergency food packages were distributed by the charity in 2015-16.
