North Lakes Foodbank
A food bank in the Trussell network.
You need a referral first. Ring them, or ask a support worker, health visitor or Citizens Advice to refer you.
Their website says: In order to get an emergency food parcel, you will need to be issued a food voucher from one of our referral agency partners. Statutory agencies such as your GP, housing association or Citizens Advice can assess you for a food voucher and provide signposting for help towards your crisis.
Take this with you
You need a referral before they can help — do not set out without one.
