Will you help us raise £5,000 to feed families in need this Christmas?
Breakfast, lunch, dinner. We don’t give a second thought to some meals.
Grabbed on the go, at your desk, at the table, in the kitchen. Sometimes in a restaurant. But what else can your meal do?
It can feed a child. It can help a country-wide network of food banks that want to change the status quo. It can buy food for a family and relief from hunger.
For the price of a meal you can change someone’s Christmas for the better. And that’s priceless.
There are more than 14 million people living in poverty in the UK –including 4.5 million children - and this Christmas is going to be
particularly difficult for many.
The Trussell Trust, the UKs largest network of foodbanks, expects a 61 per cent increase in the number of food parcels needed this winter.
Join our campaign – donate the price of a meal
We’re supporting the Trust’s work and asking if you’ll also help by donating the price of a meal - whether that’s your lunch or the value of celebratory dinner for two - to a family in need.
About The Trussell Trust
The charity supports a nationwide network of foodbanks and provides emergency food and support to people locked in poverty, campaigning for change to end the need for foodbanks in the UK.
It supports over 1,200 foodbank centres in the UK – 40 in the South West – helping them provide a minimum of three days’ nutritionally-balanced emergency food to people who have been referred in crisis, as well as support to help people resolve the crises they face.
Between April 2019 and March 2020, foodbanks in its network provided a record 1.9 million food supplies to people in crisis, an 18 per cent increase on the previous year.
