WHAT IS YOUR PREFERRED FOOD BANK?
Food banks and food cupboards throughout Northumberland work together in partnership with the Food 4 All warehouse and generous community donations to distribute food to those in need.
WHY DO WE ASK YOU?
We ask that you select your preferred food bank or food cupboard and access these high demand items from that site. Collectively we will do our best to ensure you have access to these items at least once per month.
Please note, you are welcome to visit more than one food distribution site in your community each month but please remember that you might not be given the high demand items from these other locations.
For more information, please speak with one of our staff at these locations.
