Redcliffe Emergency Foodbank

Can you help?

We're raising funds for Redcliffe Emergency Foodbank as part of our Harvest Festival, this year.

If you are able to help financially, you can donate here.

If you're looking for a practical way to support those who are struggling at this time? We could do with some extra donations of tinned fruit and tinned fish at the Redcliffe Emergency Foodbank! 

Redcliffe Emergency Foodbank

The Redcliffe Emergency Foodbank was set up in April to ensure that those struggling financially in our neighbourhood would be able to access food. We have worked closely with North Bristol Foodbank and Faithspace, the community centre in the heart of Redcliffe, to set up this support.

The Foodbank has been accepting donations of food from the general public, local businesses and churches, which is then made into emergency food parcels for individuals and families who have been referred for this support. So far, we have received an amazing

778.3kg in donations of food from the local community!

The parcels include enough food to cover meals for three days, plus toiletries and cleaning products as necessary. Each one is tailored to the individuals who will be receiving it.

In the past, Foodbanks have operated a drop-in session so that individuals accessing this support would come to collect their food and, at the same time, have some social interaction with Foodbank volunteers and the opportunity to be signposted to further support.

This has not been possible during the Covid-19 and so, instead, food parcels have been delivered directly to recipients by Foodbank volunteers so that they do not have to leave their homes. Despite that, the doorstep has provided a good opportunity for volunteers to check in with people and offer that social interaction.

Food donations can be dropped to Faithspace on Prewett St between 10am - 1pm on Wednesdays.

Thank you!
