A SCHOOL has donated to their local foodbank as part of their Christmas collection appeal.
Darwen Aldridge Community Academy have supported the Tressell Trust’s Foodbank in Blackburn for the last four years.
Margaret Bradshaw, from DACA’s Student Services team said this year's collection had been the largest so far.
She said: "We had a huge response from students, teachers and extended families and friends.
"It has been a great pleasure to support such an essential charity. "We know that many local families use the foodbank on a regular basis and that Christmas can be such a difficult time financially for many people."
