With times getting harder, sometimes it can be a struggle to put food on the table, meaning more and more people are turning to the Isle of Man Foodbank, so 3FM is teaming up with No. 1 Accounts for Foodbank Friday!  

We want to keep the foodbank stocked, so next time you’re shopping, pop an extra item or two in your basket . . . then drop them to 3FM, or maybe arrange a collection in your workplace or at a local club . . . let us know and we’ll pick up items from you before delivering to the Foodbank each Friday! 

Here's some ideas of items you can donate . . . 

Tinned meat or fish, tinned stew, curry, sausages, meatballs, etc.
