We believe everyone deserves access to food regardless of circumstances. Our foodbank is open to everyone and you can self refer.
If you need an emergency food parcel or more information, please call Reconnect on 01283 547211.
Our foodbank is operated by a part time coordinator and lovely volunteers. During 2022 we were able to provide enough food for 44,325 meals. This was only made possible by the support of our community who donated money or foodbank items to support the service.
