CHARITIES in Barrow have benefitted from donations from Barrow's toilet paper factory Kimberly-Clark.
Staff from the company donated packs of Andrex toilet and Kleenex tissues to Barrow Foodbank, Age UK Barrow and District, Furness Homeless Support Group and Project John.
Site director Graham Ellis said: "As a large employer in the area, we at Kimberly-Clark in Barrow are committed to the local community and in supporting local charities where possible.
"With the recent panic buying seen across the country, leaving some of our most vulnerable in society at risk, we felt it was the right time to send donations of Andrex toilet roll and Kleenex facial tissue to a few chosen charities to support those in greatest need."
The factory has stepped up production to meet demand.
