Story

Insight from food banks on the frontline of this crisis predicts that this winter will be much worse than the height of the pandemic. On top of two exhausting years navigating and supporting their communities, food banks are now hit with the devastating pressures of increased need, higher costs and stock issues, making their work more challenging than ever before.

For the first time ever, our food bank network gave out more food than was donated last year. And this year, they are having to top up their donations by buying food on a scale weve never seen before. This is alongside increased utility bills and reduced capacity to provide additional practical support to help people through this crisis and to a place where they can afford the essentials.

Many food banks are telling us they are worried about covering costs to stay open.

Theyre exhausted; theyre running out of options; and, unless something drastically changes, they will not be able to support everyone in their communities this winter.

Help us fight hunger and poverty across the UK.

By bringing your colleagues together to fundraise for the Trussell Trust youll be helping us support an incredible network of 1,300 local food banks in communities across the UK. Theyre staffed by amazing volunteers who make a difference every day.

Youll be helping us train and fund expert financial advisers to support people facing financial crisis. They spend whatever time it takes with someone to make a plan that helps them back on their feet for good.

And youll help us campaign to change policies that make poverty in the UK worse, and fight for the changes we need to see a future where no one needs to use a food bank.

We cant do this without you.

All funds raised for this event via your JustGiving page until 31 March 2023, will be put directly towards our Emergency Appeal Fund. After this date, your gift will be used by the Trussell Trust wherever the need is greatest. Thank you for your support.
