The Food Bank is a ground-breaking concept designed to help individuals and families in crisis by providing free emergency food until the appropriate agencies are in a position to assist.

Tinned and dried food is donated by the public  and other local groups and "banked"in one of our storage rooms.

Food is then given to people in crisis as a result of referrals from registered care professionals such as Social Services, Health Visitors, and other carers working in the front line and sometimes to individuals that just come in off the street who are clearly in need.

How Can you help?

We will always welcome additional voluntary donations of food.

The list below shows the types of food we would love to receive:

• Milk (UHT or powdered)
• Cereal
• Tinned Soup
• Fruit Juice (carton)
• Pasta Sauces
• Baked Beans
• Rice/Sponge Pudding (Tinned)
• Tomatoes (Tinned)
• Pasta/Rice (1kg)
• Tinned Vegetables
• Tea Bags
• Instant Mashed Potato
• Tinned Meat/Fish
• Tinned Fruit
• Sugar (500g)
• Biscuits or snack bars

Just drop off as much or as little as you can to LIFEhouse throughout the week.

contact us if you need help in any way!
