Weston Favell Centre Foodbank

Helping local people in crisis

Our foodbank is a project founded by local churches and community groups, working together towards stopping hunger in our local area.

Why the community needs us

We don't think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That's why we provide three days' nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.

Our impact on the community

In 2019, we fed just under 6000 people. So far in 2020, due to the pandemic, demand has risen dramatically! Just in April, we fed over 1000 people. We are spending hundreds of pounds every week on buying enough food, so every donation is hugely appreciated.
