Kassandra Hopkins, member of staff for Haart Estate Agents Bracknell and organiser of the new space for SPSAS, said: "We have a food collection drop-off for families.

"We have storage boxes that sit in our window where any member of the public can drop off food, with social distancing in mind.

"We will then pass that on to the charity and they will dish that out to those in need, with people struggling at the moment.

"It's really important for us to be supporting a local charity - at the moment we all need as much help as possible, especially with the lockdown."

The food drop-off boxes were issued to the estate agents on Friday, February 26.
