Coventry Foodbank distributes food through 12 partner churches

click here for more information and a location map.

There is a foodbank open somewhere in the City every day of the week! We are now providing food to well over 200 people a week and some distribution points are busier than others.

In particular The Hope Centre is used by many foodbank clients and sometimes runs out of food. To avoid a lengthy wait or the possibility of not receiving a food parcel please consider one of the other eleven locations around the City.

 

Donate food

We rely on food donations to feed local people in crisis. From packets of pasta to tins of tomatoes please give what you can. Could you donate in-date non-perishable food from our shopping list? Read more

Coventry foodbank in the news

Coventry foodbank continues to attract national and local press interest. Some of this is positive and some less so. The recent one hour documentary by David Modell entitled "Britains Hidden Hungry" highlighted the plight of Charlotte and a number of other foodbank clients.

Charlotte is now studying at University and she will receive support from many people who where moved by her story. If you were moved by Charlotte's story and would like to donate then please contact the Trussell Trust directly.

There are more links to stories relating to Coventry foodbank on our Facebook webpage. Link with it to follow our exciting story.

Coventry Clothes Bank

Coventry foodbank in partnership with BBC CWR is collecting warm winter clothes, specifically hats, gloves, scarves, coats and jumpers.

With temperatures dropping across the country and snow already here, what better way to help people in crisis this year than to drop off good quality clean clothes which will then be redistributed through the foodbank's network.

The following pubs are involved :

The Tollgate Pub and Carvery, 
Holyhead Road

The Old Shepherd, Keresley
The Hearsall Inn, Craven Street
The Mill Pool, Hipswell Highway

Humber Hotel, Holyhead Road

Blue Bistro, Spon Street
The Festival, Cheylesmore
