Hospital Radio Colchester were pleased to once again welcome Mike Daniels representing Harvest for the Hungry into the studio to tell the listeners all about their project. Harvest for the Hungry send humanitarian aid – food boxes - to Eastern Europe - principally Bulgaria. This is the 8th year the project has taken place in Essex. Individuals take and fill a box, return it with £3, and it is later driven to Bulgaria. Boxes number over 6000 (70 tons) and taking part are schools, churches, and businesses. A Harvest Thanksgiving service is held in the Meadows Shopping Centre, Chelmsford and in Mersea following this the lorries leave on their journey to individual families, institutions, old people’s homes and orphanages. The team from Mersea hope to collect 300+ boxes. Everyone contributes their time, equipment etc FREE!
This year Hospital Radio Colchester is participating in a practical way with our presenters filling food boxes.
