This December Burnley FC are once again joining forces with partner Vertu to collect food items for the local foodbank operated by Burnley FC in the Community.
At the Clarets’ fixture against Middlesbrough on Friday 6th December, there will be a sleigh with reindeer situated on Harry Potts Way between 5:30-8:00pm, alongside two Vertu branded cars, that we are aiming to fill with food donations.
In addition to the Christmas display on Harry Potts Way, there will also be a donation station based in the Rapidz Fan Zone on the evening, where supporters can also donate food items.
Since opening its doors in 2020, demand for the foodbank, based in Burnley town centre, has seen significant increase and with the weather turning colder this winter, all donations of non-perishable food items are very much welcome.
This year when a donation is made at one of the donation stations based at the stadium on the night or at the town centre foodbank, supporters can scan a QR code to enter into a prize draw to win a Burnley FC VIP matchday experience.
The premium experience includes two hospitality tickets, a package of Burnley FC merchandise, and more!
For those who cannot attend the game to donate in person, an online donation can be made to the foodbank at burnleyfccommunity.org. All donations this festive season will make a real difference and help the foodbank provide much-needed support to the people in the local community who need it most.
