Kenton foodbank offers Food-parcels which last a family or individual for up to a week, we also provide hygiene/toiletries packs and a welfare advice service
The Kenton Foodbank team are experienced professional and welcoming to any one who requires our service
A new team member would be trained to welcome and support the client's needs.
All clients are registered this enables them to return on a weekly basis if they need to.
There are two sizes of Food parcels which are made in advance this is in case there is a queue for the food parcels and in order to stick to Covid 19 regulations
