Need food?

FAQs

Here are answers to frequently asked questions:

Can the parcel be adapted to special dietary requirements?

Our foodbank can usually adapt your food parcel 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 adapt your parcel to accommodate any food allergies you indicate.

Will the food parcel cater for my whole family?

Our foodbank will adapt your food parcel 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?

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

What if I can’t get to the foodbank centre?

Our foodbank may be able to deliver your food parcel to your home, especially if you have mobility needs or are unwell. Once you have your food voucher, please give us a call to discuss a delivery. Deliveries are subject to volunteer driver availability.
