To help people with financial difficulties who can't afford to buy their own food. Run by Skipton Baptist Church, currently based at St Andrews Church Hall.

Food provided entirely from donations is distributed as food hampers to those in need mainly through referral from local agencies. We have several donation points around Skipton and in surrounding areas. We can also help with debt counselling through Christians Against Poverty.
