Congleton Meal Pack

Sun, Jul 6th 2025 at 9:00 am - 2:00 pm

100 volunteers required at a really fun event.


Rotary Congleton attended the Sandbach meal pack in Eric Russell's DG year, and we were so inspired by the event that we came away from it saying we must host our own!

What struck us was not only the incredible difference the meal pack makes, but the fun and fellowship everyone had taking part.

To those of you who have taken part in a meal pack, you will know how important this project is, but for those who haven't, here is a link to why it matters so much: Rise Against Hunger | It Starts With a Meal

We need 2 things:

  1. 100 volunteers to help us to pack 30,000 meals at Congleton Town Hall on Sunday 6th July, arrival at 9.00am

  2. We need to raise £15,000 to pay for the raw ingredients that we will pack.

    1. We plan to raise 50% of the total through our annual Swimathon event

    2. We are reaching out to clubs in our district to support us with the remaining 50%. We understand each clubs circumstances are different, and for this reason, we are not setting a prescriptive figure, we are simply appealing for your club to support us as much as you can.

To register your volunteer and financial support, please email info@congletonrotary.co.uk which goes directly to our secretary, who will collate all responses and respond with the next steps.

We do hope you can support us with this amazing project and look forward to seeing you there!
