Gary said: “We’ve helped out with charity events before now but nothing on this scale, I couldn’t believe how many donations we received.
"I was helping with a shoe box donation and thought about doing something for the little food banks in the area – I didn’t expect to get such a massive amount of support.”
The food bank was donated to the charity by members of the club yesterday, Monday, November 15 following the two week collection.
