Consider taking your staff to the Knights Table to help out - they always need enthusiastic volunteers. Share your progress on social media to help spread the word.
AT HOME: Look through your cupboards and do some spring cleaning! Knights Table will accept your excess food and toiletries (unopened and unexpired). Your home will be tidier and someone in need will benefit from your generosity.
