The hostel will remain open as usual, and collections for the food bank are still needed.

The Crawley Food Bank Partnership is operated by Crawley Open House along with The Easter Team, a charity that serves people who are homeless or in need in and around Crawley.

It is a challenging period for the food bank as restrictions on purchasing household staples have meant that supplies for the house are more difficult to come by.

Donations are still needed.

A representative of Crawley Open House suggests that members of the public check the website, which can be found at crawleyopenhouse.co.uk/coronavirus, for regular updates about operations at the open house and food bank.

Updates will also be posted on the Open House Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
