London’s "Busiest Foodbank" Needs Donations

According to our Council, our local food bank, the Hammersmith and Fulham Foodbank, is officially London’s busiest. Which, of course, isn't really something to be proud of.

Worse news is that the Foodbank urgently needs  help to meet the increasing demand from local people in need.

Over the last two years, the number of families fed by the Foodbank has apparently more than doubled, and "supplies of essential items are running low".

What does the Foodbank need?

The Foodbank is running short of supplies and is most in need of:

• Tinned fruit and vegetables 
• Long life juice 
• UHT milk 
• Tinned meat and fish
• Coffee (small jars) 
• Cereals 
• Biscuits
• Spreads (such as peanut butter or jam) 
• Toilet roll.
