Mary's Meals Backpack Project

Fri, Nov 1st 2019 at 8:00 am- Sat, Nov 30th 2019 - 4:00 pm

Information following our meeting on Sunday 6/10/2019


We discussed the idea of supporting the Mary's Meals Backpack Project which seeks to provide filled school backpacks for children. Iain undertook to contact Mary's Meals regarding promotional literature etc. and an update on this will be provided shortly. 

In the meantime there is a wealth of information on Mary's Meals and in particular The Backpack Project available here: -

www.marysmeals.org.uk click on 'Get Involved' then 'Campaigns' and then 'The Backpack Project'.

Here you can dowload a 'Teacher's Guide' and a 'Publicity Flyer'.


Following a visit to Mary's Meals offices in Glasgow when we picked up a number of posters and leaflets about the project along with copies of their recent newsletter we were also sent useful links as shown below.
