The pantry put out a request for people’s old coats in early November and was full within a fortnight.
Pantry manager Claire Fuller said: “Our community has been fabulous and donated some amazing coats and they are here for anyone who needs a warm coat this winter. We’re asking anyone, whether you’re a member of the pantry or not, to come in and get a coat.”
