HOW IT WORKS
• Schools, churches, businesses and individuals donate non-perishable, in-date food to the foodbank. All food given out by foodbanks is donated. ‘Supermarket Collections’ are one of the main ways that food is donated. These are food drives held at supermarkets where volunteers give shoppers a ‘foodbank shopping list’ and ask them to buy an extra item or two for local people in crisis.
• Volunteers sort food to check that it’s in-date and pack it into boxes ready to be given to people in need.
• Care professionals such as doctors, health visitors, social workers, CAB and police identify people in crisis and issue them with a foodbank voucher.
• Foodbank clients bring their voucher to a foodbank centre where it can be redeemed for three days emergency food. Volunteers meet clients over a cup of tea or free hot meal and are able to signpost people to agencies able to solve the longer-term problem.
• Our foodbank also runs a local delivery service, which takes emergency food parcels to clients living in local areas who are not able to travel. To learn how you can get involved, please visit us online at https://runnymede.foodbank.org.uk/give-help/
