Mini Vinnies visit Hope Project Food Bank

14th December 2020 by Charlotte Bevan

Members of the Mini Vinnies Group from St Anthony’s RC School, Woodhouse Park, visited the Hope Project Food Bank based at Caritas’ St. Aidan’s Centre, Wythenshawe. The school brought another amazing donation of food and the children were able to learn about the food bank and how it operates. The children did an amazing job with helping to mark up the cans and prepare food parcels.

Thanks you from Caritas and Catholic Social Action Wythenshawe to St Anthony’s and all the schools who have supported the food bank – as the children learnt, without this support the food bank would not have been able to continue during the pandemic! One of the children described what the food bank did during this time as “a miracle!”

The SENsitive Group (which is a support group for families who have children with special needs) linking up with Siena Castellon, a young person who was one of three finalist chosen for International Children’s Peace Prize.

18 year old Siena was chosen for her efforts in campaigning for children who have autism. Since 13 years of age Siena, who has autism, has spoken out, set up a website to support children with autism and written a book!

The book, ‘The Spectrum Girl’s Survival Guide: How to grow up Awesome and Autistic,’ is aimed at teenage girls who have autism.

The SENsitive members were inspired by Siena’s powerful story and her achievements.
