Your Foodbank Needs You!
Due to recent high demand, we are running critically short on many of our essential items which will ultimately impact the support we are able to give to our clients.
Up to July 2025 we have given out 11,100 kg of food but received only 6,600 kg in donations, so we are currently operating at a 50% shortfall. Food going out is up 7.3 % compared to July 2024, whereas food coming in is down 33.9 %.
We are currently looking for additional donations of everyday essentials such as breakfast items, tinned and dried main meals (lunch and dinner), puddings and other niceties.
We maintain a list of items which we are in urgent need of on our website (www.stivesparishchurch.org.uk/foodbank) or this can also be viewed on the BanktheFood app (www.bankthefood.com/download-the-app) which gives you a copy of the list on your phone wherever you go.
Donations can be dropped off at:
• Morrisons, Waitrose, The Co-op and Nationwide in St Ives
• Tesco Express in Somersham
• All Saints Parish Church, whenever open
• The Vicarage (Westwood Road, St Ives), in the grey cabinet
• The Foodbank Warehouse (email for info)
For more info, please email foodbank@stivesparishchurch.org.uk.
Thank you for your continued support!
