Returnable Transit Packaging company PPS has welcomed the opportunity to support Hope Central, a charity that aims to bring hope by relieving food poverty in the community.

Hope Central are a community-based charity that receive regular referrals to provide food support for people who do not have sufficient food, an issue that has become increasingly prevalent in light of the coronavirus pandemic.

The increase in dependency on Hope Central’s foodbanks has created challenges for the charity, placing a strain on their dedicated volunteers to store and distribute the food effectively.

To help alleviate this issue, Hope Central reached out to PPS who were happy to provide a large number of their plastic food trays, which will allow for better and more efficient storage of key goods donated to the charity.

Ian Robertson, a trustee of Hope Central, said: “We’re very grateful to PPS for their generous donation of trays. They have been put to immediate use by our team of volunteers and they will make life easier for us as we try to meet the ever growing need to relieve food poverty”.

Joanne Lee, Group Managing director of PPS, was delighted to be able to help Hope Central: “Hope have been doing incredible work in a bid to relieve food poverty in the community for a number of years. We are delighted to be able to play a small part in helping them at a time when their services are in need more than ever.
