Story

If you were in crisis - where would you turn?
Many of us have friends and family to turn to when the going gets tough. But what if your family could no longer help and you had nowhere else to go? What if the kids were hungry, the cupboards bare and you’re not sure where the next meal is coming from?

That’s where Weston-super-Mare Foodbank can help. By giving people food and support when they need it most - helping to avert greater disaster and greater poverty.

The Weston-super-Mare Foodbank will work with local frontline care professionals who will be able to issue food vouchers to those in need which can be exchanged for emergency food boxes.

Each box contains 3 days supply of nutritionally balanced tinned and dried food. This is a short term measure providing breathing space until additional help is offered by professional agencies.

We are a a Christian charity but work across all faiths and nationalities to share God's love and compassion in times of need.

Mission
