Members from the Gibraltar Youth Service were at the forefront of leading the “Care for our Community Campaign” over the weekend.

The event was organised by the Gibraltar Youth Service and supported by the Royal Gibraltar Police, the Care Agency, the Department of Education and various local wholesalers and businesses. As a direct result of agencies and businesses working together, those present were able to demonstrate the generous and positive community spirit in Gibraltar.

This initiative has quadrupled over the last two years with a record number of 70 food hampers distributed. Everyone came together on the day to prepare and deliver the healthy food hampers to the vulnerable and elderly members in our community.

A highlight in the lead up to the event was seeing the number of pupils from various schools proactively participating alongside the Gibraltar Youth Service members in not only donating food but also designing Easter cards for the elderly, many of who live alone.

The Youth Service wishes to thank all those who gave up their time voluntarily and took time off their busy schedules to assist before and during the event.
