I am the Charity Treasurer for Bridgwater Foodbank and we need to raise vital funds to support our community through Coronavirus.

Since the start of the Covid-19 crisis the number of those coming for help has almost doubled, because they have lost their income and benefits haven't arrived. 

We are now needing to buy in food to meet this extra demand. 

How you can help 

Your donations will allow us to buy the extra food we need to support vulnerable people.

  • £25 could provide food for two for three days
  • £50 could provide food for a family of four for three days
  • £100 could provide food for a family of four for six days

About Us 

Founded 8 years ago, the Bridgwater Foodbank gives food, help and advise to those in crisis in the Bridgwater area.

“The foodbank was there when we really needed it, it was an absolute lifeline.”

We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.

Thank you so much for your help!
