'Period Poverty' affects many women in UK. With the help of our kind donors in Basildon, we are proudly supporting our community with these essential needs.

If you visit the Basildon Foodbank to collect a food parcel, please ask for menstrual products if you, or anyone at home, would like them. We have towels and tampons for all levels of need. We occasionally have incontinence products, so please ask 😊

Poverty and mental health are often treated as separate issues, but they’re connected in so many ways. These are just some of the links...

You never know what someone is going through. Let's lead with empathy and compassion - we’re all in the same storm, just in different boats 💚

At Basildon Foodbank, we’ve learned that it’s not just about food—it’s about creating a space where people feel welcomed, valued, and supported in times of crisis.

Support from Trussell helped us establish one of our centres, and additional funding from Essex Community Foundation (including the Acorn Fund) has enabled us to sustain and grow this work.

From that foundation, we’ve been able to go beyond food—offering people advice, guidance, and practical help towards stability.

We’re grateful to all our partners who make this possible.
