Faringdon-Oxfordshire
FOOD Bank

We know it’s a challenging time for everyone at the moment due to the cost of living crisis

​

The Faringdon Food bank is aimed at supporting people who are in financial crisis and will be open on Friday mornings as well as Monday and Wednesday mornings from 10am to 12pm in the Town Council Offices, 5 Market Place, Pump House SN7 7HL.

​

Your local food bank works with referral agencies to issue food vouchers to those in need of food. The food bank provides emergency food on presentation of a voucher. You can get a referral voucher from your school, doctor, health visitor, advice service, children’s centre, local church, social worker, CAB, CAP, Housing Associations or any agency that is giving you support.
