Food banks

Clients who are without any means to obtain food may be able to get help from a food bank. Most food banks operate on a referral basis. To find a local one, see trusselltrust.org/get-help/find-a-foodbank. Many foodbanks limit the number of times that a client can use them in a set period. Some food banks can also issue ‘fuel bank’ vouchers to top up gas and electricity prepayment meters.
