Walton & Hersham FoodBank

Walton & Hersham FoodBank Emergency food for people in crisis. How a foodbank works:

1. Local supermarkets with donations boxes are Waitrose, Hersham & Sainsbury’s, Walton.

Opening times for those with a referral:
Mon 12-2 - St Andrews Church, Wed 10-12 - St Peters Church, Thurs 10-12 & Friday 10-12 - St Johns Church. Food is donated
All food given out is donated, whether by schools, churches, businesses, individuals, or supermarket donation boxes. Additional drop off point at James Neave estate agents in high street, Walton.

2. Food is sorted by volunteers accordi

ng to type and 'best before date'. They also check it is undamaged (and that it can be used in a food parcel) and pack it into parcels ready to be distributed. It is then taken to foodbank centres ready to be
distributed.

3. Care professionals such as doctors, health visitors, social workers, Citizens Advice Bureau staff, welfare officers, the police and probation officers, amongst others, identify people in crisis and issue them with a foodbank voucher or E referral code.

4. Clients bring their voucher or E referral code to a foodbank centre where it is exchanged for a three day parcel of food. Food parcels have been designed by dieticians to provide recipients with nutritionally balanced food. Get Involved:
Your gifts of time, funds or food can help stop local people going hungry. We could not do it without you.

1. Volunteer
There are many ways to get involved as a volunteer - you could help us with food sorting and packing, fundraising or promoting the foodbank to the local community. If you have some time to give and are willing to help, please get in touch.

2. Donate money as a one off donation or regular giving via our online giving page making sure that we are always here to help people in crisis. We appreciate whatever you can give, big or small.

3. Give food

Bags Bags Bags!!! 🛍️🛍️🛍️
We are in real need of food donations due to continuous high demand for our service but our stock of carrier bags is very low.
These are so useful when we deliver emergency food to those who are unable to travel to our sessions.
If you are donating food to us please consider including some extra bags.
Thank you 😊

A lovely event at Riverhouse Barn Arts Centre. Thank you for the opportunity to attend.

We were delighted to attend Walton Community Festival at Riverhouse Barn on Saturday 23rd May! ☀

The event is a lively Community Festival celebrating creativity, heritage, and local talent.

We were joined by lots of other fabulous community groups and were able to showcase artwork created by clients who use The Bridge community hub, which is due to move to its new location at Church Farm in Burhill Road, Hersham next month.

With thanks to Barn Arts Centre for the fantastic venue.

👉15% of UK households have gone without some foods in the last month. One in 10 are skipping meals.

This is according to a new report by Which? which also found that more than half of UK households are making adjustments to cover essentials.

You can help by donating to the Foodbank, giving relief to those for whom food bills are a daily worry. There are currently 20,000 children who are growing up in poverty in Surrey, and your gift will help ensure that fewer of them go hungry.
