We don’t think anyone in Leeds should have to face going without essentials due to a lack of income. That’s why we work to ensure no one in our community needs a food bank to survive, while providing food and practical support to people left without enough money to live on. We provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and household essentials to local people referred to us in crisis. Alongside these essentials our volunteers provide a friendly face and a listening ear over a cup of tea. We also offer support at our centres through our money advice partners who can help make sure people who visit us are accessing all the financial support available to them along with other support services that could help people break free from hunger and hardship. We rely on our supporters generous donations to enable us to provide both emergency food to people coming to us and importantly to provide the wrap around services which can support people to be less likely to need to turn to a foodbank in the future.
