Welcome
We are a community project working to serve the community and fight poverty.
The Plymouth Foodbank is helping people who are in financial crisis by providing them with much needed food and also a listening ear and useful advice. 92 different agencies now have the ability to provide clients with Foodbank vouchers.
Clients receive a maximum of 3 vouchers. Each foodbag contains enough tinned and dried food for a balanced diet for three days.
See the News page for the latest news, events and testimonials.
