MSF are doing their first post- Christmas Middlesbrough Foodbank collection this weekend at the Coventry game from 12pm to kick-off.

Donation point is close to the North Stand ticket office, the Foodbank are looking for dry and non-perishable foods or cash donations.

If you have anything you can bring, these are the list of urgently needed items:

- Long life milk
- Long life juice
- Tinned sandwich meat
- Tinned fruit

If you are attending the game and are able to contribute anything it would be greatly appreciated once again.

Our last collection just before Christmas raised an amazing £1365.70 and we took in 737.85kg of food.

Hope to see some of you on Saturday

Good luck on Saturday.

A lot of working class people really seem to be struggling as we come out of peak Covid.
 
There is also a collection just next to the Exit door in the main Riverside ticket office that people can use to leave tins/packets of food at any time - during opening hours.
 
Remember if you can to pop a tin or packet of food in your pocket and look out for the Foodbank collection van at the Riverside before kick off tomorrow.
 
On the Middlesbrough Foodbank website they provide a shopping list of items they most need - so you could pick from the list before bringing something to today's game..
