DCM Christmas donations
This year we aren’t collecting money donations for DCM as so many demands have been made on the Parish recently.
Please donate non-perishable Christmas treats for the DCM food bank.

DCM Food Collection
DCM's Pātaka Kai (Foodbank) sustains people in a very practical way, offering both physical and financial support.
Sometimes the Foodbank can be an entry point into DCM services – and they can then move beyond kai to try to understand what other supports people may need.
Can you help with:
• Ready meals/soups
• Instant noodles
• Tinned fish
• Baked beans
• Biscuits & crackers
• Pasta and curry sauces
• Muesli bars
• Coffee, tea, milk powder
• Toilet paper
• Toothbrushes
• Toothpaste
• Soap
• Deodorant
• Razors
• Washing powder
Please place your donations in the basket as you come into church.
Many thanks for your help from DCM.
