Foodbank Update

22nd June 2024

2023 was our busiest year ever and we fed over 4,500 people, including 1,601 children. This represented over 36 tons of food and toiletries; a 47% increase on 2022 and this year (2024 ) is predicted to be even higher.

We would sincerely like to thank everyone who supports us with donations and, of course, our lovely volunteers.

Sadly, due to the current cost of living crises, donations are less than half of the demand.

We would be very grateful to receive donations of any of the following:

  • 500g long grain rice
  • Small jars of coffee
  • Small bottles of orange squash
  • Tins of rice pudding
  • UHT cartons of semi-skimmed milk

It is our aim to alter the items required when the need changes. To quote a well-known supermarket “Every Little Helps”

Thank you in anticipation.
