Food bank
Our Food Bank is available for anyone in need of food, across the Borough. If you are in need of a parcel, or want to refer someone to the Food Bank, click here.
Our Food Bank provides emergency supplies of essential food and toiletries to individuals and families experiencing acute crisis. Our parcels are typically made up of a mixture of non-perishable and perishable items. Examples of what you might find in a food parcel are below, although exact contents vary from week to week depending on our donations. The size of our food parcels vary depending on the size of the household, and they typically last 5 to 7 days.
Per our policy, on an initial referral to the Food Bank all guests can collect up to 6 parcels. These can be collected consecutively, or spaced out depending on the guests needs. After the initial 6 parcels have been received, if further support is needed the guest must contact Brent Hubs to access their advice and guidance. This can be done on the phone, or in person.
Store cupboard items: rice, pasta, noodles, tinned soup, tinned fish, teabags, cooking sauces, oil, sugar, long-life milk etc.
Fresh items: fruit, vegetables, bread, pastries, etc.
