Any plastic bags lying around the house after your Christmas shopping?

Foodbanks have to buy hundreds of plastic bags every month for packaging and distributing your donations.

Bring your spares, bring a tin and bring the noise for our last foodbank fixture of the year!

🥶As the temperatures drop and prices soar, families are forced to choose between food and heating.

Supermarkets and energy companies are making billions off our backs.

Every donation makes a huge difference.

43% of disabled people in Ipswich will lose £1000s in support under the proposed Welfare Bill.

This will put even more pressure on the foodbank you collect for on match days.

We've written to @jackabbott.bsky.social urging him to vote against this bill which will push more into poverty.
Dear Mr Abbott, We are writing to express our serious concerns about the upcoming parliamentary vote on cuts to Personal Independence Payment (PIP) and urge you to vote against a bill that would push thousands of your constituents below the poverty line. In Ipswich, it is estimated that 43% of those currently receiving PIP will lose access to this essential payment. Research from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation found that the plans threaten to plunge 400,000 people into poverty. The Department for Work and Pensions estimates that 1.3 million people across the UK could lose PIP support under these proposed changes. Make no mistake, this will have devastating consequences for our most vulnerable residents. As foodbank volunteers, we see the immediate impact when people lose benefits. Families who have never needed help before suddenly cannot afford basic groceries. Disabled people are forced to choose between necessary equipment and feeding their families. These cuts will drive more people into poverty and food insecurity. Disabled people who rely on PIP to cover essential costs of living with disabilities will be disproportionately affected by these cuts. When this support is removed, families face impossible choices between heating, eating and accessing essential care. These cuts create a false economy. Short-term welfare savings lead to increased costs for local authorities, foodbanks and charitable organisations already under pressure. The human cost is immeasurable. We urge you to consider the impact of these cuts on your constituency and beyond. Hunger doesn’t wear club colours, similarly, it doesn’t wear party colours. It would make a huge difference if you were to add your name to the list of 100+ Labour colleagues backing the amendment put forward by 13 Parliamentary committee chairs. If that amendment is not accepted then please join the growing number of MPs who oppose the cuts to PIP, and vote against this bill. A compassionate society supports its…

We’ll be on BBC Radio Suffolk around 12.30 today, paying tribute to your solidarity and generosity.

Fans can only paper over the cracks for so long - we’ll continue calling for our governing bodies to make material change for those in poverty.

Congratulations to our friends at West Ham, the latest club to confirm a price freeze. They've also rowed back on removing concession pricing.

Shows the value of strong fan groups, working together in a concerted, consistent way.
