Food Donations

Every week we give away food to those of our clients who have no support at all. Our food bank helps to alleviate some degree of food poverty and gives our clients some choice, nutrition and variety in their weekly groceries.

This group has been going for over over 15 years, run almost entirely by volunteers. We buy most of our food from supermarkets and a local grocer but are also very grateful to those who have donated food directly.
