‘INCREDIBLY HUMBLING’: Food donation brings community together through kindness

 Published on: 15th January 2026   |   By: Ellie Rose   |   Category: Uncategorized

Sometimes it’s the simplest kind gestures that really make you pause and reflect.

For Samantha and the team at Health Hive in Pinner, that moment came on Wednesday, January 7, when they delivered food donations to St Katherine’s Church.

Over the past month, Samantha and her colleague Charlie Paradise, owner of Health Hive Well and Nutrition Club, have been gathering donations alongside Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind to gather donations for the local food bank

Accompanied by Health Hive member Linda Durham, Samantha personally delivered the donations to the church’s food bank. The visit offered a stark reminder of the struggles many families face.

Speaking to PINNERnews, Samantha said: “Seeing just how much even the smallest donation means to the team was incredibly humbling.

“It’s one of those things you don’t always think about in day-to-day life, but it’s really made me reflect on how much we have, how much can go to waste, and how many people genuinely need support.”

The experience has inspired Samantha to make conscious choices in her own life, from reducing food waste to giving back through charity efforts.

She explained: “We don’t need half as much as we think we do, and kindness in any form is truly precious. Small actions really do add up.”

It’s moments like this that remind us how powerful a little kindness can be.
