We need your food donations now
We rely on donations of food to feed people in crisis in our area. Demand has never been higher. But food donations have fallen and continue to fall. Our stocks are low and we need your donations of food right now.
How you can donate food

Help us to collect food
Organise a food collection in your workplace, school, social club or in your neighbourhood. Or you can support one of our supermarket collections.
How to help us collect the food we need
We love it when people organise collections of food and bring it in to us at the warehouse, because it shows how supportive and caring our community is. Here are a couple of ideas of how you can help us increase our food donations.
Host a donation station
Lots of local offices, schools, social clubs and places of worship host our donation stations to collect food for us. You can set one up too – they are easy to organise and they really help.
If you would like to do this, email admin@nourishcommunityfoodbank.org.uk.
Organise a neighbourhood food collection
Collecting food from households in your street or area can be a really successful way to support Nourish. Some people do a door-to-door trolley dash round their neighbourhood. Others organise an event where people pay to attend with a food donation. If you want to set something up, get in touch for support and information and to log your event with us by emailing admin@nourishcommunityfoodbank.org.uk.
Volunteer at our supermarket collection events
We will be visiting local supermarkets over the coming months and collecting from shoppers from right outside the store. If you can help us staff these collections, please read this information and register to be an events volunteer. Once you are on our list, and we have confirmed dates, we will contact you and you can sign up to help.
