Donate food

UPDATED 10th APRIL 2024

Due to an increased demand over the last few weeks, we are now very low on several basic food items – please see shopping list on this page for what we need the most right now!

****We currently do NOT need donations of pasta, baked beans or soup****

PLEASE NOTE!!!

NO “OUT OF DATE” FOOD

NO NUTS and NO ALCOHOL (including low and 0% alcohol varieties)

ALL DONATED FOOD MUST BE WITHIN ITS “USE BY” DATE AND IN UNDAMAGED AND UNOPENED PACKAGING

As we are trying to do our bit to reduce environmental damage, please help us by donating only eco-friendly baby wipes which do not contain any plastics.

If you have a large donation of food that won’t fit in a collection box then please phone 07884 106719 for info on how to deliver it to the Foodbank.

Only food and items purchased in Supermarkets should be placed in their own collection boxes. Thank you.

 

We are always very grateful for donations and promise to use them to provide help to people in crisis. Occasionally we send food to other nearby foodbanks to support their work particularly if they experience shortages. This ensures your donations go to help people wherever in the UK they are.

Please contact us if you have any questions about donating food.
