Please donate festive food to help Tavistock Foodbank bring joy to local families in crisis this Christmas

We are asking local people to help bring festive cheer to families struggling to eat this Christmas by donating festive food items to the food bank. For some families, the Christmas hampers given out alongside standard food parcels will be their only treat this Christmas.

Local people facing bleak times this Christmas will be given food hampers containing mince pies, puddings, tinned ham, chocolates and other festive treats alongside a standard emergency food parcel. The food bank partners with frontline care professionals, such as health visitors, social workers and other community-based support workers, who are able to identify people in crisis and refer them to the food bank.

Hidden behind closed doors there are many Tavistock families with little to look forward to this Christmas, the good news is we can all help. We hope that the people of Tavistock will join our Christmas hamper campaign to give local people, with little to look forward to, a happier Christmas. Please see our Donate Food page for urgently needed items.
