Cirencester Foodbank

We provide emergency food and practical support to people in their hardest moments. We also work with partners and local communities to ensure everyone gets the right help long before they need a food bank.

Join the 570 Club This Christmas! 🎄

#570club

We’re on a mission: a community without the need for a food bank. That’s right, our long-term aim is to close!

Every month, we provide emergency food and fund financial advice to help break the cycle of hardship, but running a food bank isn’t free.

Just £10 a month, the cost of 2 coffees, can make a lasting difference. £20 a month? That’s just a coffee a week!

Our goal is 570 people standing alongside us this Christmas. Out of approximately 57,000 people living across the area we serve, that’s just 1%. Will you be part of that amazing 1%?
