Contracts Company Caters For Chelmsford Christmas

The foodbanks in Chelmsford have received donations from The Window Company (Contracts) to help provide a better Christmas to those in the community for whom life is a struggle.

The Chelmsford Food Bank issued a ‘reverse advent calendar’ with a list of the items they would most like donated. The Window Company (Contracts) ticked off the entire list and donated several boxes packed with essentials, as well as treats.

Duarte Dias, the yard manager, delivered the boxes to the foodbank ready to be distributed in time for the Christmas holidays. He says: “It was really nice to be able to donate even more boxes than we’d planned because as well as our company donations, lots of members of staff got involved – ticking off all the things on the calendar.”

As well as the reverse advent, The Window Company (Contracts) also made donations to the foodbank run by The Chelmsford Muslim Society, which is located opposite their HQ and to the Christmas appeals being run by customers Moat Housing and main contractors Wates and Morgan Sindall.
