Winter appeal

Winter is often the busiest time for food banks in the Trussell community.  

Last winter, 600,000 food parcels were distributed to people facing hunger and poverty.  

We expect this year to be just as challenging as more people struggle to afford even the essentials.

Please donate today to help provide urgent support.

We need urgent action on hunger in the UK. That's why we work together to ensure no one in the UK needs a food bank to survive. 

Until that happens, we provide emergency food and practical support to people in their hardest moments. And work with partners and local communities to ensure everyone gets the right help long before they need a food bank. 

Get emergency food

If you need help, your local food bank can provide an emergency food parcel. We can help you find out where to get a food voucher for emergency food.

Support us

One in seven people in the UK are facing hunger. We will not stop until everyone has enough money for the essentials, and the distribution of emergency food can end for good.
