What to expect from a food pack

Visiting a food bank is often the last resort, so we try to make it as easy as possible and check that you have all you need. 

We can provide food, toiletries, bedding, household items, pet food and small electricals. It’s important to us that our packs suit the needs of the individual or families receiving them. Our food packs are nutritious and contain a variety of foods. These include tinned and packet foods alongside fresh fruit and vegetables, bread, meat or vegetarian options. We try to provide a good quantity of nutritious, high-quality food in our food packs, and tailor each pack to meet people’s dietary requirements and preferences. We believe in respecting people's food choices no matter what financial predicament they find themselves in.

The food packs we give out contain enough food for seven days.

When you get referred, tell us what your needs are, so we can make your pack just right for you. For example, we can offer packs that are 

• Vegetarian
• Halal
• Dairy or wheat-free
• Allergy based
• Without foods you don’t like or struggle to eat
• You'll have enough food for 7 days which will make a variety of filling meals.
