    IN THE WORLD, YET

    Number of people

    day emergency in Oxford.
    food supplies
    were provided.

    400,000 went to children.

    How have we allowed such worldly
    extremes where some are wealthy
    beyond measure - and others are pushed
    to the outer edges of society and forced
    to live a type of twilight existence?

    Where some are so materially rich that if


    they lived to be hundreds of years old -
    and never did another days work in their
    lives - it would not dent their coffers and
    others die for want of a warm bed and a
    regular meal. Such disparities are
    obscene.
    HOW CAN I HELP?

    BANBURY HAS ITS OWN FOODBANK


    By donating food for the Banbury Foodbank.
    They require dried/ non-perishable food.
    1,836 food parcels were
    Such given out last year
    as:
    Tinned tomatoes, tinned vegetables, tinned
    meat and tinned soup; breakfast cereal;
    cooking oil; pasta sauces etc.

    THANK YOU!
