When you do your shopping this week please keep in mind the Foodbank – helping people in times of crisis

The Foodbank provides local people with necessities, not luxuries. It allows people to collect the necessities they need to live.

We are so grateful to all of our wonderful supporters, every donation really does make a difference!

Thank you to those who arrange supermarket deliveries to us. This is a fantastic way for people to make a direct donation. If you want to arrange a delivery to us, please pick a morning slot with your chosen supermarket and drop us a message letting us know when to expect it.

You may prefer to make a small donation by text, details are at the bottom of this email.

A huge thanks, as always, for your continued support.

Please note that in an effort to keep our teams safe, and leaving the warehouse at a sensible time, we are accepting donations up to 2pm daily and 1.30pm on a Thursday. This will then give them time to sort the food before clocking off time. If you need to drop food off after this time then please do contact us to make separate arrangements.

Please note that the office is not open every day and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
