Dear Parents,

 

South View Federation will be taking part in this year’s Harvest appeal for the Basingstoke Foodbank.

 

The Basingstoke Foodbank collects donations from a variety of schools across Basingstoke.  These donations support local families through difficult winter months and well into the spring. Basingstoke Foodbank relies solely on voluntary donations to help keep their foodbank running for the community.

 

Taking part in the Harvest appeal means we could all make a real difference and offer support to local families in need.  Without the help of voluntary donations, foodbanks would struggle to operate and this is why your support is needed more than ever this Harvest.

 

Attached to this letter is a Harvest shopping list. Please take note of the foods that are most needed and running low. If at all possible, please avoid the items that they do not require. We’d like everyone to take part, so please send your child into school with at least one item from the Harvest appeal shopping list to help support the work of the Basingstoke Foodbank.

 

Please bring all items into school on Monday 10th November 2025.

Best wishes

Miss F Rogers & Mrs P Dyer
