Last year, Waterloo Foodbank saw a 132% increase in demand for food parcels during December and we are already preparing for the same this year. You can help us by giving the gift of a food parcel this Christmas, by making your own donation or purchasing parcels on behalf of family or friends.

By donating the cost of a three-day food parcel for one person (£15) or a family (£35), you can be certain that your gift will be spent where it will have the most impact. And just a £5 donation will help us feed one person for a day, when they need it most.

We will send you an e-gift card to mark your donation - either for you or your friend or family member - explaining the gift that you've given and how it will help make a difference to someone's life.

Last December we provided food for 350 local people - including 166 children. Please, make sure your Christmas shopping makes a difference and support Waterloo Foodbank's appeal.

Please remember to tick the Gift Aid box if you are eligible, to make your donation go further.
