What food banks give goes far beyond what’s in the bag. Support, warmth, and understanding sometimes that’s what makes the biggest difference.

02/05/2026

These 8 everyday essentials are the backbone of our food parcels. We’re always grateful for any you can spare.

25/04/2026

Our food banks are under more pressure than ever. Each year, they’re forced to buy more food to meet rising need. If you can spare a tin, a packet, or a few pounds, it truly helps families in our community.

01/04/2026

We're excited to announce that we've received a grant from Breckland Council! Thanks to this generous support, we're able to continue providing our services across Thetford, Watton, and Attleborough for the coming year. This includes our emergency food provision, as well as our energy bank and financial inclusion services, supporting those who need it most.
We can't wait to see the impact it'll have. A big thank you to Breckland Council supported by Norfolk Community Foundation through Breckland Council Match Funding.
