Announcement
Food bank Fridays have started at Willington! On the first Friday of the month (Friday 6th December), pupils are encouraged to try and bring an item in. Our donations will be going to Dons Local Action Group who have provided food for over 5.5 million meals to our local community. Food bank Fridays is a way to actively support the important work of the DLAG food bank on an ongoing basis. You can see below how your items can make a difference.

I am excited to announce the following opportunities are taking place in the next few weeks for some of the pupils who have signed up to join 'Willington Helping Hands Crew'.

More opportunities to give back to our community will continue next year and I am excited to share these with you soon.

If you have an unwanted laptop or Chromebook, the “Keep kids connected” team at DLAG can restore and regift them to children to help reduce inequalities and fight digital poverty. Your device must be no longer than 8 years old, still in working order. It doesn't matter if you can't find the charger, DLAG can sort that.

If you have any unwanted furniture, DLAG will collect, restore and get it to families who are most in need.
