The woman who spearheaded efforts to care for the community during the pandemic has swung back into action to fill the emptying shelves of Llangollen Food Share.

Cat Meade has just launched a new fundraising effort for the local charity which has revealed its current plight on social media.

In a recent post it said: "Every week, it is a challenge to get in enough food in the hub to make up approximately 40-50 weekly food parcels benefitting approximately 60-80 people

"We currently rely heavily on public donations. If you are financially comfortable, please consider donating cupboard food or cash in person or via Paypal or bank transfer." 

In her own post on the Llangollen Support Group, which she founded, Cat has posted: "The team of volunteers at Llan Food Share work day and night/seven days a week supporting local families, the community has been great with donations, however more and more demand is required every week. 

"On seeing the recent numbers the food share are assisting locally, I've put a call out to local businesses for help.

"As always, we look after our own and I am very thankful for the support to assist our fab team at food share."
