Story
Edinburgh Food Project operates 7 Food Banks across northwest, central & east Edinburgh. As well as providing food parcels we also have two other foundations to our work - Our More Than Food projects offer a range of support to people including housing and employment, while our Money Advice Service offers free confidential benefits, budgeting, and debt advice. Our ambition is to move those needing our support through this difficult period and help them out of poverty. In September 2022, we provided 1059 meals to those who accessed our services. As well as receiving these meals, those we support also had full access to our other services which aim to help improve the lives of those living in poverty in Edinburgh. Our Christmas Appeal for 2022 is to ask those who want to support their fellow Edinburgh citizens to donate a one-off gift of £10. This will be used to help provide food parcels, money advice & more than food to the hundreds of people who attend our 7 foodbanks each week.
