👋 Here's a reminder of our Wish List for June 🌞

During the summer months, donations decline at foodbanks across the country. We need to make sure that we have enough stock so we're ready to help families who may struggle during the summer holidays. If you are out shopping and are able to make a donation, an item or two from this list would be just great.
THANK YOU! 🙏

Long-life fruit juice
Tinned cold meats - ham, corned beef etc
Hot dog sausages - jars or tins
Instant mash
Tinned fruit - all types
Tinned peas
Tinned sweetcorn
Tinned carrots
Tinned custard
Instant hot chocolate
Puddings - e.g. jelly, Angel Delight
Puddings - long-life sponge
Instant coffee - small jars please
Deodorants (roll-on)
Loo cleaner
Surface cleaner
Or... make a donation via our website*

All donations are appreciated, thank you for your support 💚

*Why do we ask for donations?
Donations of money help us purchase fresh food as and when we need it. We now try to make sure all foodbank users have access to bread, butter and cheese, as well as some fresh fruit and vegetables. Financial donations also help us purchase specific items that might be needed such as baby items or foods for specific diet/allergies. Donations also help us fund weekly professional debt and money advice services which are available to ANYONE in our wider community who comes along to the Community Cafe and Advice Hub in Wetherby or Tadcaster.

💚 Today we'd like to say a huge to the pupils and teacher from St Edward's Primary School in Boston Spa for all their help and interest in our foodbank! They spent the morning at our warehouse sorting and putting away donated items, learning all about how our foodbank works and how we help people in our community. THANK YOU! You were all brilliant! 👏 🙏 🙂

Thank you to anyone who donated this week, your support is appreciated!

❗️ Volunteers needed!
To support our vital operations, we urgently need volunteers for various roles like warehouse sorting, transport and community engagement.

If you have some time to spare this summer, you can help us meet the seasonal challenges across our Wetherby and Tadcaster sites. You may be looking for work experience or to meet new people and be part of a team. Whatever your reason we would love to hear from you!

👋 As money becomes increasingly tight for so many people, knowing where and when you can access help is important.

You may never need us, but someone you know might.
Why not save the image and share it with people you know?

You can find the foodbank at Barleyfields Community Centre in Wetherby every Tuesday and Friday from 10am till midday and also at Community Cafes in Tadcaster and Wetherby. If you find yourself unable to afford enough food for the week or having to chose between food or bills, you can also phone us direct and leave a message. A volunteer will get back to you. The number is 07840 455 725.

Our foodbank covers a wide semi-rural area: from the outer edges of Leeds to outer York, from villages surrounding Tadcaster, up towards Boroughbridge and Harrogate - plus all the villages and communities in between. If you can't get to us, we can deliver if needed.

The Community Cafes and Advice Hubs in Tadcaster and Wetherby are a great place to access information and support. Citizens Advice are there every week, as are the foodbank and a range of other groups and organisations who can provide support - from help with budgeting, bills or benefits to food, free legal advice and NHS social prescribing. 🙂

💚 Today we'd like to say a huge to everyone of all ages who came to see us and support us Wetherby Markets last week! THANK YOU! 🙏

☀️ It may have poured to begin with, but the sun came out and we had a fabulous day chatting to people, handing out scavenger hunts and picnic bags to children and generally spreading the word about what we do and how we can help. We also collected many generous donations so THANK YOU Wetherby!

Huge thanks also to Tesco Extra at York's Clifton Moor and in particular Eloise, their wonderful Community Champion, for her help in providing the 100 picnic bags! 🙂
