The Battens Charitable Trust supports 5 and counting food banks across Somerset and Dorset throughout the year but especially at Christmas, so anyone who supports the BCT does not just support 1 food bank but many! We are also donating to other local initiatives to help people during the cost of living crisis.

Battens staff are planning to run, bike, swim, walk the distance from your home to one of our Battens offices over the month of December. You dont even have to go outside in the cold, you can get on a static bike or treadmill and do your kms on there!

If you would like to support our staff you can donate to the BCTs just giving page or take up the challenge yourself and fundraise!
