How we work: The Food Bank supplies emergency food parcels to people who are struggling to feed themselves or their families.  We work with local support agencies who refer people to us who are in need of food support.  We ask people to be referred each time they need a parcel.  We supply food parcels to single people and families of mainly non perishable food.  We often will also add in fresh fruit and veg, eggs and cheese when it is available.  With the organisations that we work with we try and point people in the direction of other help and support so people do not rely on us for the long term.  

If you support us, Thank you for your support.

If you are struggling to buy food for yourself or your family do ask for help either by asking a support agency for a referral or by calling us, we can then explain how to get a refferral.  A list of referrers can be found on our I need help page.
