In an average year, we give out close to 800 food parcels to struggling families and individuals who engage with us directly through our Debt and Advice Clinics or who have been referred to us by agencies.

We would not be able to do this without ongoing food donations to our Food Bank.

When I came to clinic, I got a food parcel. It was a real blessing because some weeks I only had enough money to feed my daughter.
