Platinum Jubilee Bank Holiday Friday 3rd June

27th May 2022

We are open thanks to our wonderful volunteers.  

Please remember you will need a voucher to come to the Food Bank and many agencies will be closed on Thursday 2nd and Friday 3rd June so you will need to get the voucher beforehand.  Turning up without a voucher puts the volunteers and session under pressure and priority will be given to voucher holders as their parcels are prepared in advance of the session.

If you are in financial crisis and live in England or Wales, please call our free national helpline, Help through Hardship, on 0808 2082138 for free (open Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm, closed on public holidays) to talk confidentially with a trained Citizens Advice adviser. They can help address your crises and provide support to maximise your income, help you navigate the benefits system, and identify any additional grants you could be entitled to. If needed, they’ll issue you with a voucher so you can get an emergency food parcel from your local food bank.

Translators and Relay UK
Please ask the adviser if you need a translator, this will be provided via Language Line. If you can’t hear or speak on the phone you can use Relay UK. Find out how to use Relay UK
