Ipswich Town fans will once again unite in a "fight against poverty" by supporting a local foodbank. 

Supporters will gather in the club's FanZone on Saturday ahead of the Blues' match against Forest Green Rovers to donate food items for Ipswich FIND (Families in Need).

It is hoped the collection will build upon the successful first collection drive in January, which saw organisers "blown away" by the generosity of fans.

Physical items and cash donations will now be welcomed at a second location near the Sir Bobby Robson statue outside Portman Road.

Ipswich Town Fans Supporting Foodbanks was borne of the idea that supporters can come together regardless of club allegiances to support those less fortunate.

Spokesman and organiser of the group Charlie Nixon said: "We all know Ipswich is a family club, and the sheer amount of support and kindness is indicative of the fan base pulling in the same direction.

"We hope that this continues on the 18th, and we appreciate the Club’s support in making this possible once again.

"Those interested in adding to our brilliant team can find us in the FanZone and on the Portman Road on February 18, or contact us using ITFC.FSF@gmail.com".
