What’s the criteria to receive a food parcel?
Some independent foodbanks won’t require anything for you to get food from them - you can just turn up and get what you need.
However, others may require a foodbank voucher or a referral. To get this, you can contact the citizens’ advice bureau on 0808 223 1133.

If you’d like to make a donation to your local foodbank, there are several ways of going about it.
Firstly, you can visit them directly and drop off some food that way. As well as this, most supermarkets have a collection near the exit where you can leave unwanted food items - these will be taken to a foodbank.
You can also make a donation at schools or churches if they have a collection point.
