Whilst many families are looking forward to the long summer holidays with the possibility of trips away and family picnics, for a number families this period comes with an added pressure.Children who would normally received a free school meal now get vouchers which they have to redeem at local supermarkets. Its one thing queueing up with all your mates and discreetly showing your meal ticket, its another going into the local food store with your vouchers in front of people you don’t know.

The food bank is here to support and help these families.

If you can donate any of these items they can be brought to HFC on Friday mornings between 9.30 – 11 or to the drop-off points at Iceland, Station approach or at Panagua Bikes, Hayes Street.                                                                                                                  

Alternatively you are welcome to make a monetary donation.             

If you want to donate to Hayes Community Food Bank the details are: Sort code 20-13-93 Account 23568946 

Our continued thanks to everyone who donates to the Food Bank.

Thank you from Teresa and the Team.
