Our RLS team has redistributed hundreds of loaves of surplus bread within 2 hours. Thanks to our partner Fletcher’s Bakery, this delicious bread has been made available to Lucy at Hanover Court and Sue at Burton Grange Community Centre with a brilliant shelf life so they can prepare loads of delicious meals for vulnerable and isolated people.
