What we do
The Foodbank at St Matthew’s is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from midday to 2.00pm. Click here for a map.
Please note that we will be closed on Christmas Day (Wednesday 25th December) and on New Years Day (Wednesday 1st January). Food support will continue to be available as normal on the Monday and Friday of those two weeks.
You need to be referred by one of the local agencies such as
-
Citizens’ Advice Bureau
-
Renewed Hope Trust
-
Raven Housing Trust
Once you have asked for a referral from an agency they will normally contact us quite quickly by phone or email to confirm their support of your request for food support. We will then provide you with essential, non-perishable food items to keep you going while you are having difficulty feeding yourself and your family.
