We have been supporting people, schools and other food banks for years with hygiene products. We fed into this report that has been published and highlights just how hard the situation is for too many.

Our biggest food supplier has needed to add a delivery charge onto our weekly order of £15 per week as of 1 October. This may not sound much but over the year is £780 on top of the £4000 and this is just one supplier. It is going to be hard to pay but they need to put their price up to survive.

If you, your family, group or business have any ideas or can help please let us know. 01837 218228.

Could you be part of our team on a Wednesday? You'd need to be kind,patient and practical!
Our work includes handling food so experience of that or a willingness to run through a level 2 food hygiene online course (we pay) is essential.
Hours are 0930 to 1215 ish. We open at 10 and close at noon.
Our location is at 3 Station Road, EX20 1DY and we are looking for three people as this is a new shift, to join our existing lead volunteer.
We are a diverse bunch of people all committed to supporting our community. Fancy finding out more? Please call 01837 218228 or email [email protected]
THANK YOU. You are the magic that makes stuff happen.

Okehampton Community Christmas is not far! We need packaging for the food we put in our support packs. I guess we don't need them as much as we really want to be able to take lovely goodies to those who can't cook due to illness. disability or with no cooking facilities. Here is our wish list, we don't mind if they come from.Amazon or anywhere else. THANK YOU
