Warrington Foodbank

Warrington foodbank is a way of supporting individuals and families who meet a crisis situation and cannot afford food for a time. It works in the following way:

  • Non-perishable food is donated by the public, through churches, businesses and schools
  • Volunteers sort the food in the foodbank warehouse
  • Care professionals such as doctors, health visitors, social workers, Citizens Advice Bureau, Children's Centres and police identify people in crisis and issue each person with a foodbank voucher
  • When you are given a foodbank voucher, you take it to one of the foodbank centres at the opening times shown (see details below)
  • In exchange for a voucher, you are given a food supply which will provide three balanced meals a day for three days. The amount you receive depends on whether you are an individual living alone or whether you are applying on behalf of a family.
