If you would like to help but are unable to get food or get to a drop off point, you may like to donate money online here.

Over 90% of the food distributed by foodbanks in The Trussell Trust network is donated by the public – that’s why your food donations are absolutely vital to our ability to give everyone referred to us a balanced and nutritious three day supply of food.

Our shopping list on the right shows the food items that we need right now.

*  The reason for this is that these stores donate a percentage of cash to the foodbank based on the weight of goods bought in the store. If you donate items bought elsewhere, please leave them in a bag so as to identify non-instore purchases. There are also many other collection points listed below. Thank You

We always welcome donations and promise to use them to provide help to people in crisis. Occasionally we send food to other nearby foodbanks to support their work particularly if they experience shortages. This ensures your donations go to help people wherever in the UK they are.

Please contact us if you have any questions about donating food.
