Leading North-West law firm Brown Turner Ross has pledged to support the Southport Soup Kitchen as the number of people needing the service has risen sharply. Founded in Southport in 1884 the team at BTR are keen to help those who are struggling in the current cost of living crisis and are asking clients and businesses to donate whatever they can to make sure that those less fortunate have somewhere to go to feed themselves and their families.
Sam Bushell, Managing Director at BTR said “We are asking everyone we know to look through their cupboards and drop off anything they can spare. The local Soup Kitchen has seen the largest increase of people using their service this year in the facilities 20-year history and we feel strongly that we want to support those who need it the most during these very difficult economic times”.
The team are asking for people drop off any spare non-perishable items of food including tinned items such as tuna, curry, beans, vegetables, soups, tomatoes etc, or dried items such as rice, pasta, cereal and cartons, bottle or cans of drinks. Also in very short supply are toiletries including deodorant, shower gels, shampoo, toothpaste and wipes.
