The Foodbank has been operating a delivery only service and this has been working well. We are lucky to have a very good group of volunteers who have given their time and vehicles up to deliver food parcels throughout the Forest, we offer them a huge debt of gratitude. In the first few days since lockdown we have delivered 42 food parcels feeding 160 people, many family parcels have been issued to those with children and we are very happy to know that we are providing essential support to families at this difficult time.
Just to remind people to call our helplines if you are in financial crisis and can not afford food
