Need food?

FAQs

Here are answers to frequently asked questions:

Can the parcel be adapted to special dietary requirements?

We can usually adapt your food to suit your dietary needs. Just let them know when you arrive with your voucher. We can provide specific parcels for a range of needs including people with diabetes, gluten intolerance and vegetarians. We will also endeavour to accommodate any food allergies you indicate.

Will the food cater for my whole family?

We will adapt your food according to the number of adults and children indicated on your voucher. They will also endeavour to provide foods that are age appropriate and in suitable quantities for your children.

I have a baby, can you help with supplies of nappies and baby food?

We usually carry a small stock of nappies and baby foods, which we can add to your parcel. Please let one of the volunteers know when you arrive if you need additional items for your baby.

What if I can’t get to the food bank?

We may be able to deliver your food parcel to your home in particular circumstances, for example if you aren’t able to visit the food bank, and no one else is able to pick up on your behalf. Once you have your food voucher, please give us a call to discuss a delivery. Deliveries are subject to volunteer driver availability.
