On Saturday 2nd December, Joel James MS volunteered at the Tesco Winter Food Collection at their Barry Superstore.
The Collection, which is held annually, gathers long-life food for the Trussell Trust and FareShare.
As part of the Food Collection, Joel volunteered at the store by handing out shopping lists with key items the foodbanks require to customers and met local representatives of these charities to learn more about the work they are doing in South Wales Central.
Speaking after his time at the store, Joel said:
It was great to support Tesco's Winter Food Collection again this year in partnership with The Trussell Trust. I’m really grateful and a massive thanks to the staff and volunteers at Vale Foodbank for the brilliant work they do, and for allowing me to join them on the weekend.
