Story

Thank you to everyone who has donated to this campaign, without the support of so many of you we would not have been able to continue, launch new sites and ultimately address the immediate food crisis caused by coronavirus.As the coronavirus crisis has continued, we have experienced a huge increase in need. To illustrate this, prior to the crisis our busiest week was in December 2019, where we supported 117 individuals and families across four foodbanks.  In the last week of April 2020, just one of our seven foodbanks supported 126 individuals and families. This increase in need means our weekly food bill would be almost £8,000, should we need to purchase it, not to mention staffing, transport and equipment.  

Sadly, we are expecting this increased need to continue for the foreseeable future as more people experience difficulty as a result of coronavirus and its wider consequences.  We still don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we asking you to support us to continue to provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food to local people, in the initial crisis, through 2020 and beyond!Sometimes the numbers involved can seem daunting so we’ll make it simple - £27 provides food and basic essentials for a family of three.

Thank so much for all your support, love and encouragement – S6 foodbank!
