Over 1000 items collected for Wansbeck Food bank and families in the community. Great team work from all Duke’s students, families and staff which showed great compassion for others, especially in these tough times. Staff from the food bank were genuinely overwhelmed by how much we collected and the van was full. Students from the Arc were a great help in organising and setting up the collection on the day. A huge thank you from Beacon staff.
