Foodbank

Thirteen million people live below the poverty line in the UK. Every day people in the UK go hungry for a variety of reasons. Last year, the Trussell Trust's food bank network distributed 1.9 million three-day emergency food supplies to people in crisis. Rising costs of food and fuel combined with static income, high unemployment and changes to benefits are causing more and more people to come to foodbanks for help.



Clevedon District Foodbank is an independent charity seeded by the Trussell Trust. They work together with locally-based agencies, including charities, schools and government agencies to provide practical support in the form of food, together with advice and friendship to those in crisis in the local area. For more information, including details of locations and opening times, please see the Clevedon District Foodbank website.
